The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm/damon/dbgfs: fix bogus string length
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was

Subject: mm/damon/dbgfs: fix bogus string length
Date: Fri, 2 Feb 2024 13:43:26 +0100

gcc correctly points out that using strnlen() on a fixed size array
is nonsense with an overlong limit:

mm/damon/dbgfs.c: In function 'damon_dbgfs_deprecated_read':
mm/damon/dbgfs.c:814:19: error: 'strnlen' specified bound 1024 exceeds source size 512 [-Werror=stringop-overread]
  814 |         int len = strnlen(kbuf, 1024);
      |                   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
mm/damon/dbgfs.c:813:14: note: source object allocated here
  813 |         char kbuf[512] = DAMON_DBGFS_DEPRECATION_NOTICE;
      |              ^~~~

In fact, neither of the arbitrary limits are needed here: The first
one can just be a static const string and avoid wasting any more
space then necessary, and the strnlen() can be either strlen() or
sizeof(kbuf)-1, both of which the compiler turns into the same
constant here.
