Need to update to make this node-ID dependent to be interpreted by collector:

buffer occupancy: 4-octet unsigned integer field. This field
indicates the current status of the buffer occupancy. The buffer
occupancy is expressed as the current number of memory buffers
used by the set of queues that share a common buffer pool.

Addressed in #119

I think the edits in #119 went a little too far, cutting out much of the definition of buffer occupancy. The text "used by the set of queues that share a common buffer pool" should be reinserted somehow. How about:

This field indicates the current status of the occupancy of the common buffer pool used by a set of queues. The units of this field depend on the equipment type and deployment and has to be interpreted within the context of a namespace and/or node-id if used.
