Patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: fix refresh_ms control overwriting on multi-kdamonds usages". Automatic esssential DAMON/DAMOS status update feature of DAMON sysfs interface (refresh_ms) is broken [1] for multiple DAMON contexts (kdamonds) use case, since it uses a global single damon_call_control object for all created DAMON contexts. The fields of the object, particularly the list field is over-written for the contexts and it makes unexpected results including user-space hangup and kernel crashes [2]. Fix it by extending damon_call_control for the use case and updating the usage on DAMON sysfs interface to use per-context dynamically allocated damon_call_control object. This patch (of 2): When damon_call_control->repeat is set, damon_call() is executed asynchronously, and is eventually canceled when kdamond finishes. If the damon_call_control object is dynamically allocated, finding the place to deallocate the object is difficult. Introduce a new damon_call_control field, namely dealloc_on_cancel, to ask the kdamond deallocates those dynamically allocated objects when those are canceled.
