Docs/admin-guide/mm/damon/lru_sort: warn commit_inputs vs param updates race
DAMON_LRU_SORT handles commit_inputs request inside kdamond thread, reading the module parameters. If the user updates the module parameters while the kdamond thread is reading those, races can happen. To avoid this, the commit_inputs parameter shows whether it is still in the progress, assuming users wouldn't update parameters in the middle of the work. Some users might ignore that. Add a warning about the behavior. The issue was discovered in [1] by sashiko.
