We try to present memory statistics to userspace in bytes or kbytes rather
than number-of-pages. Because page-size varies between architectures and
between .configs. Displaying number-of-pages is just inviting people to write
it-broke-when-i-moved-it-to-ia64 applications.
Plus kbytes is a bit more user-friendly, particularly when the user will
want to compare these numbers to /proc/meminfo, for example.
Using %llu might be more appropriate than %lld.
