scftorture: Count single_rpc offline failures in statistics outputgrafted
scf_torture_stats_print() aggregates each invoker thread's counters into a local scf_statistics structure before printing, but the n_single_rpc_ofl field is missing from the aggregation loop. As a result, the "single_rpc_ofl" value printed in the statistics line is always zero, even when smp_call_function_single() invocations for the RPC test have failed due to offline CPUs and been counted by the invoker threads. Add the missing accumulation so that the printed value reflects the actual counts. Signed-off-by: Joel Fernandes <joelagnelf@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>

+Description: Enable/disable demoting pages during reclaim
+
+ Page migration during reclaim is intended for systems
+ with tiered memory configurations. These systems have
+ multiple types of memory with varied performance
+ characteristics instead of plain NUMA systems where
+ the same kind of memory is found at varied distances.
+ Allowing page migration during reclaim enables these
+ systems to migrate pages from fast tiers to slow tiers
+ when the fast tier is under pressure. This migration
+ is performed before swap if an eligible numa node is
+ present in cpuset.mems for the cgroup (or if cpuset v1
+ is being used). If cpusets.mems changes at runtime, it
+ may move data to a NUMA node that does not fall into the
+ cpuset of the new cpusets.mems, which might be construed
+ to violate the guarantees of cpusets. Shared memory,
+ such as libraries, owned by another cgroup may still be
+ demoted and result in memory use on a node not present
+ in cpusets.mem. This should not be enabled on systems
+ which need strict cpuset location guarantees.
