Changes were made partially with script.  For totalram_pages and
totalhigh_pages,

find dir -type f -exec sed -i
's/totalram_pages/atomic_long_read(\&totalram_pages)/g' {} \;
find dir -type f -exec sed -i
's/totalhigh_pages/atomic_long_read(\&totalhigh_pages)/g' {} \;

For managed_pages it was mostly manual edits after using,
find mm/ -type f -exec sed -i
's/zone->managed_pages/atomic_long_read(\&zone->managed_pages)/g' {}
\;

Regards,
Arun
