mm/damon/ops-common: call folio_test_lru() after folio_get()
damon_get_folio() speculatively calls folio_test_lru() before folio_try_get(). The folio can get freed and reallocated to a tail page. In the case, VM_BUG_ON_PGFLAGS() in const_folio_flags() can be triggered. Remove the speculative call. Also mark folio_test_lru() check right after folio_try_get() success as no more unlikely. The race should be rare. Also the problem can happen only if the kernel has enabled CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGFLAGS. No real world report of this issue has been made so far. This fix is based on only theoretical analysis. That said, a bug is a bug. A similar issue was also fixed via commit 3203b3ab0fcf ("mm/filemap: don't call folio_test_locked() without a reference in next_uptodate_folio()"). I don't expect this change will make a meaningful impact to DAMON performance in the real world, though I will be happy to be corrected from the real world reports. The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.
