mm-tracepoint: rename page-free events

Browse Source 
Rename mm_page_free_direct into mm_page_free and mm_pagevec_free into
mm_page_free_batched

Since v2.6.33-5426-gc475dab the kernel triggers mm_page_free_direct for
all freed pages, not only for directly freed.  So, let's name it properly.
 For pages freed via page-list we also trigger mm_page_free_batched event.

When pages are freed in batch, the also mm_page_free_batched is triggered.
Broadly speaking, pages are taken off the LRU lock in bulk and
freed in batch with a page list. Significant amounts of activity here could
indicate that the system is under memory pressure and can also indicate
contention on the zone->lru_lock.
