The document mentions any patches for review should based on mm-unstable instead of damon/next. It should be the recommended process, but sometimes patches based on damon/next could be posted for some reasons. Actually, the DAMON-based tiered memory management patchset[1] was written on top of 'young page' DAMOS filter patchset, which was in damon/next tree as of the writing. Allow such case and just ask such things to be clearly specified.
