Good finding, thanks!

Could we add relevant 'Fixes: ' and 'Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>' tags?

Seems unnecessary new line?

Looks good to me, but...  How about simply doing 'damon_add_target()' before
'if (damon_target_has_pid())', like below?

```
diff --git a/mm/damon/sysfs.c b/mm/damon/sysfs.c

```


Thanks,
