+	  Enable Kernel Samepage Merging: KSM periodically scans those areas
+	  of an application's address space that an app has advised may be
+	  mergeable.  When it finds pages of identical content, it replaces
+	  the many instances by a single resident page with that content, so
+	  saving memory until one or another app needs to modify the content.
+	  Recommended for use with KVM, or with other duplicative applications.
+	  See Documentation/vm/ksm.txt for more information: KSM is inactive
+	  until a program has madvised that an area is MADV_MERGEABLE, and
+	  root has set /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/run to 1 (if CONFIG_SYSFS is set).
