There could be multiple targets, and 'damon_va_check_accesses()' calls
'__damon_va_check_accesses()' for all the targets.  However,
'damon_va_check_accesses()' doesn't note if '__damon_va_check_accesses()' is
called with a target that same to the target it was called with for the last
time.  Hence the check is necessary.

If I'm missing something, please let me know.


Thanks,
SJ
