    [fixed differently upstream, this is a work-around to resolve it for 4.14.y]
    
    Yongqin reported that /proc/zoneinfo format is broken in 4.14
    due to commit 7aaf7727 ("mm: don't show nr_indirectly_reclaimable
    in /proc/vmstat")

    The problem is caused by the nr_indirectly_reclaimable counter,
    which is hidden from the /proc/vmstat, but not from the
    /proc/zoneinfo. Let's fix this inconsistency and hide the
    counter from /proc/zoneinfo exactly as from /proc/vmstat.
    
    BTW, in 4.19+ the counter has been renamed and exported by
    the commit b29940c1 ("mm: rename and change semantics of
    nr_indirectly_reclaimable_bytes"), so there is no such a problem
    anymore.
