It turned out to be less useful to sort by active/inactive, as much as
just having the summary at the bottom that the last patch adds. We
can already tell from the per-object entries whether it is
active/purgable/purged.
I did initially try to come up with an approach that let me keep this,
but it would basically amount to re-writing the gem_submit path
(because you cannot do any memory allocation under mm_lock)

oh, right, forgot to fix that from an earlier iteration
