damon_feed_loop_next_input() is inefficient and fragile to overflows. 
Specifically, 'score_goal_diff_bp' calculation can overflow when 'score'
is high.  The calculation is actually unnecessary at all because 'goal' is
a constant of value 10,000.  Calculation of 'compensation' is again
fragile to overflow.  Final calculation of return value for under-achiving
case is again fragile to overflow when the current score is
under-achieving the target.

Add two corner cases handling at the beginning of the function to make the
body easier to read, and rewrite the body of the function to avoid
overflows and the unnecessary bp value calcuation.

DAMON's logics to determine if this is the time to apply damos schemes
assumes next_apply_sis is always set larger than current
passed_sample_intervals.  And therefore assume continuously incrementing
passed_sample_intervals will make it reaches to the next_apply_sis in
future.  The logic hence does apply the scheme and update next_apply_sis
only if passed_sample_intervals is same to next_apply_sis.

If Schemes apply interval is set as zero, however, next_apply_sis is set
same to current passed_sample_intervals, respectively.  And
passed_sample_intervals is incremented before doing the next_apply_sis
check.  Hence, next_apply_sis becomes larger than next_apply_sis, and the
logic says it is not the time to apply schemes and update next_apply_sis. 
In other words, DAMON stops applying schemes until passed_sample_intervals
overflows.

Based on the documents and the common sense, a reasonable behavior for
such inputs would be applying the schemes for every sampling interval. 
Handle the case by removing the assumption.

<title>mm/damon/core: handle zero {aggregation,ops_update} intervals</title>

Patch series "mm/damon/core: fix handling of zero non-sampling intervals".

DAMON's internal intervals accounting logic is not correctly handling
non-sampling intervals of zero values for a wrong assumption.  This could
cause unexpected monitoring behavior, and even result in infinite hang of
DAMON sysfs interface user threads in case of zero aggregation interval. 
Fix those by updating the intervals accounting logic.  For details of the
root case and solutions, please refer to commit messages of fixes.


This patch (of 2):

DAMON's logics to determine if this is the time to do aggregation and ops
update assumes next_{aggregation,ops_update}_sis are always set larger
than current passed_sample_intervals.  And therefore it further assumes
continuously incrementing passed_sample_intervals every sampling interval
will make it reaches to the next_{aggregation,ops_update}_sis in future. 
The logic therefore make the action and update
next_{aggregation,ops_updaste}_sis only if passed_sample_intervals is same
to the counts, respectively.

If Aggregation interval or Ops update interval are zero, however,
next_aggregation_sis or next_ops_update_sis are set same to current
passed_sample_intervals, respectively.  And passed_sample_intervals is
incremented before doing the next_{aggregation,ops_update}_sis check. 
Hence, passed_sample_intervals becomes larger than
next_{aggregation,ops_update}_sis, and the logic says it is not the time
to do the action and update next_{aggregation,ops_update}_sis forever,
until an overflow happens.  In other words, DAMON stops doing aggregations
or ops updates effectively forever, and users cannot get monitoring
results.

Based on the documents and the common sense, a reasonable behavior for
such inputs is doing an aggregation and an ops update for every sampling
interval.  Handle the case by removing the assumption.

Note that this could incur particular real issue for DAMON sysfs interface
users, in case of zero Aggregation interval.  When user starts DAMON with
zero Aggregation interval and asks online DAMON parameter tuning via DAMON
sysfs interface, the request is handled by the aggregation callback. 
Until the callback finishes the work, the user who requested the online
tuning just waits.  Hence, the user will be stuck until the
passed_sample_intervals overflows.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
 "Along with the usual shower of singleton patches, notable patch series
  in this pull request are:

   - "Align kvrealloc() with krealloc()" from Danilo Krummrich. Adds
     consistency to the APIs and behaviour of these two core allocation
     functions. This also simplifies/enables Rustification.

   - "Some cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang. No functional changes -
     mode code reuse, better function naming, logic simplifications.

   - "mm: some small page fault cleanups" from Josef Bacik. No
     functional changes - code cleanups only.

   - "Various memory tiering fixes" from Zi Yan. A small fix and a
     little cleanup.

   - "mm/swap: remove boilerplate" from Yu Zhao. Code cleanups and
     simplifications and .text shrinkage.

   - "Kernel stack usage histogram" from Pasha Tatashin and Shakeel
     Butt. This is a feature, it adds new feilds to /proc/vmstat such as

       $ grep kstack /proc/vmstat
       kstack_1k 3
       kstack_2k 188
       kstack_4k 11391
       kstack_8k 243
       kstack_16k 0

     which tells us that 11391 processes used 4k of stack while none at
     all used 16k. Useful for some system tuning things, but
     partivularly useful for "the dynamic kernel stack project".

   - "kmemleak: support for percpu memory leak detect" from Pavel
     Tikhomirov. Teaches kmemleak to detect leaksage of percpu memory.

   - "mm: memcg: page counters optimizations" from Roman Gushchin. "3
     independent small optimizations of page counters".

   - "mm: split PTE/PMD PT table Kconfig cleanups+clarifications" from
     David Hildenbrand. Improves PTE/PMD splitlock detection, makes
     powerpc/8xx work correctly by design rather than by accident.

   - "mm: remove arch_make_page_accessible()" from David Hildenbrand.
     Some folio conversions which make arch_make_page_accessible()
     unneeded.

   - "mm, memcg: cg2 memory{.swap,}.peak write handlers" fro David
     Finkel. Cleans up and fixes our handling of the resetting of the
     cgroup/process peak-memory-use detector.

   - "Make core VMA operations internal and testable" from Lorenzo
     Stoakes. Rationalizaion and encapsulation of the VMA manipulation
     APIs. With a view to better enable testing of the VMA functions,
     even from a userspace-only harness.

   - "mm: zswap: fixes for global shrinker" from Takero Funaki. Fix
     issues in the zswap global shrinker, resulting in improved
     performance.

   - "mm: print the promo watermark in zoneinfo" from Kaiyang Zhao. Fill
     in some missing info in /proc/zoneinfo.

   - "mm: replace follow_page() by folio_walk" from David Hildenbrand.
     Code cleanups and rationalizations (conversion to folio_walk())
     resulting in the removal of follow_page().

   - "improving dynamic zswap shrinker protection scheme" from Nhat
     Pham. Some tuning to improve zswap's dynamic shrinker. Significant
     reductions in swapin and improvements in performance are shown.

   - "mm: Fix several issues with unaccepted memory" from Kirill
     Shutemov. Improvements to the new unaccepted memory feature,

   - "mm/mprotect: Fix dax puds" from Peter Xu. Implements mprotect on
     DAX PUDs. This was missing, although nobody seems to have notied
     yet.

   - "Introduce a store type enum for the Maple tree" from Sidhartha
     Kumar. Cleanups and modest performance improvements for the maple
     tree library code.

   - "memcg: further decouple v1 code from v2" from Shakeel Butt. Move
     more cgroup v1 remnants away from the v2 memcg code.

   - "memcg: initiate deprecation of v1 features" from Shakeel Butt.
     Adds various warnings telling users that memcg v1 features are

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
 "Along with the usual shower of singleton patches, notable patch series
  in this pull request are:

   - "Align kvrealloc() with krealloc()" from Danilo Krummrich. Adds
     consistency to the APIs and behaviour of these two core allocation
     functions. This also simplifies/enables Rustification.

   - "Some cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang. No functional changes -
     mode code reuse, better function naming, logic simplifications.

   - "mm: some small page fault cleanups" from Josef Bacik. No
     functional changes - code cleanups only.

   - "Various memory tiering fixes" from Zi Yan. A small fix and a
     little cleanup.

   - "mm/swap: remove boilerplate" from Yu Zhao. Code cleanups and
     simplifications and .text shrinkage.

   - "Kernel stack usage histogram" from Pasha Tatashin and Shakeel
     Butt. This is a feature, it adds new feilds to /proc/vmstat such as

       $ grep kstack /proc/vmstat
       kstack_1k 3
       kstack_2k 188
       kstack_4k 11391
       kstack_8k 243
       kstack_16k 0

     which tells us that 11391 processes used 4k of stack while none at
     all used 16k. Useful for some system tuning things, but
     partivularly useful for "the dynamic kernel stack project".

   - "kmemleak: support for percpu memory leak detect" from Pavel
     Tikhomirov. Teaches kmemleak to detect leaksage of percpu memory.

   - "mm: memcg: page counters optimizations" from Roman Gushchin. "3
     independent small optimizations of page counters".

   - "mm: split PTE/PMD PT table Kconfig cleanups+clarifications" from
     David Hildenbrand. Improves PTE/PMD splitlock detection, makes
     powerpc/8xx work correctly by design rather than by accident.

   - "mm: remove arch_make_page_accessible()" from David Hildenbrand.
     Some folio conversions which make arch_make_page_accessible()
     unneeded.

   - "mm, memcg: cg2 memory{.swap,}.peak write handlers" fro David
     Finkel. Cleans up and fixes our handling of the resetting of the
     cgroup/process peak-memory-use detector.

   - "Make core VMA operations internal and testable" from Lorenzo
     Stoakes. Rationalizaion and encapsulation of the VMA manipulation
     APIs. With a view to better enable testing of the VMA functions,
     even from a userspace-only harness.

   - "mm: zswap: fixes for global shrinker" from Takero Funaki. Fix
     issues in the zswap global shrinker, resulting in improved
     performance.

   - "mm: print the promo watermark in zoneinfo" from Kaiyang Zhao. Fill
     in some missing info in /proc/zoneinfo.

   - "mm: replace follow_page() by folio_walk" from David Hildenbrand.
     Code cleanups and rationalizations (conversion to folio_walk())
     resulting in the removal of follow_page().

   - "improving dynamic zswap shrinker protection scheme" from Nhat
     Pham. Some tuning to improve zswap's dynamic shrinker. Significant
     reductions in swapin and improvements in performance are shown.

   - "mm: Fix several issues with unaccepted memory" from Kirill
     Shutemov. Improvements to the new unaccepted memory feature,

   - "mm/mprotect: Fix dax puds" from Peter Xu. Implements mprotect on
     DAX PUDs. This was missing, although nobody seems to have notied
     yet.

   - "Introduce a store type enum for the Maple tree" from Sidhartha
     Kumar. Cleanups and modest performance improvements for the maple
     tree library code.

   - "memcg: further decouple v1 code from v2" from Shakeel Butt. Move
     more cgroup v1 remnants away from the v2 memcg code.

   - "memcg: initiate deprecation of v1 features" from Shakeel Butt.
     Adds various warnings telling users that memcg v1 features are
     deprecated.

   - "mm: swap: mTHP swap allocator base on swap cluster order" from
     Chris Li. Greatly improves the success rate of the mTHP swap
     allocation.

<title>mm/damon/tests/core-kunit: skip damon_test_nr_accesses_to_accesses_bp() if aggr_interval is zero</title>

The aggregation interval of test purpose damon_attrs for
damon_test_nr_accesses_to_accesses_bp() becomes zero on 32 bit
architecture, since size of int and long types are same.  As a result,
damon_nr_accesses_to_accesses_bp() call with the test data triggers
divide-by-zero exception.  damon_nr_accesses_to_accesses_bp() shouldn't
be called with such data, and the non-test code avoids that by checking
the case on damon_update_monitoring_results().  Skip the test code in
the case, and add an explicit caution of the case on the comment for the
test target function.

<title>mm/damon/tests/vaddr-kunit: init maple tree without MT_FLAGS_LOCK_EXTERN</title>

damon_test_three_regions_in_vmas() initializes a maple tree with
MM_MT_FLAGS.  The flags contains MT_FLAGS_LOCK_EXTERN, which means mt_lock
of the maple tree will not be used.  And therefore the maple tree
initialization code skips initialization of the mt_lock.  However,
__link_vmas(), which adds vmas for test to the maple tree, uses the
mt_lock.  In other words, the uninitialized spinlock is used.  The problem
becomes clear when spinlock debugging is turned on, since it reports
spinlock bad magic bug.

Fix the issue by excluding MT_FLAGS_LOCK_EXTERN from the maple tree
initialization flags.  Note that we don't use empty flags to make it
further similar to the usage of mm maple tree, and to be prepared for
possible future changes, as suggested by Liam.

<title>Revert "mm/damon/lru_sort: adjust local variable to dynamic allocation"</title>

<content type='text'>
This reverts commit 0742cadf5e4c ("mm/damon/lru_sort: adjust local
variable to dynamic allocation").

The commit was introduced to avoid unnecessary usage of stack memory for
per-scheme region priorities histogram buffer.  The fix is nice, but the
point of the fix looks not very clear if the commit message is not read
together.  That's mainly because the buffer is a private field, which
means it is hidden from the DAMON API users.  That's not the fault of the
fix but the underlying data structure.

Now the per-scheme histogram buffer is gone, so the problem that the
commit was fixing is also removed.  The use of kmemdup() has no more point
but just making the code bit difficult to understand.  Revert the fix.
