Based on Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-kernel-mm-ksm:

	pages_shared: how many shared pages are being used.

	pages_sharing: how many more sites are sharing them i.e. how
	much saved.

and unless I'm missing something, this must be already accounted:

[~]$ echo "$(cat /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/pages_shared) * 4 / 1024" | bc
69

[~]$ echo "$(cat /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/pages_sharing) * 4 / 1024" | bc
563
