[PATCH 4/4] Revert "mm/damon/lru_sort: adjust local variable to dynamic allocation"

[SeongJae Park <sj@xxxxxxxxxx>]

This reverts commit 0742cadf5e4c080aa9bab323dfb234c37a86e884.

The commit was introduced to avoid unnecessary usage of stack memory for
per-scheme region priorities histogram buffer.  The fix is nice, but the
point of the fix looks not very clear if the commit message is not read
together.  That's mainly because the buffer is a private field, which
means it is hidden from the DAMON API users.  That's not the fault of
the fix but the underlying data structure.

Now the per-scheme histogram buffer is gone, so the problem that the
commit was fixing is also removed.  The use of kmemdup() has no more
point but just making the code bit difficult to understand.  Revert the
fix.
