ksm: move pages_sharing updates

The pages_shared count is incremented and decremented when adding a node
to and removing a node from the stable tree: easy to understand.  But the
pages_sharing count was hard to follow, being adjusted in various places:
increment and decrement it when adding to and removing from the stable tree.

And the pages_sharing variable used to include the pages_shared, then those
were subtracted when shown in the pages_sharing sysfs file: now keep it as
an exclusive count of leaves hanging off the stable tree nodes, throughout.
