Subject: mm/damon: explain "effective quota" on kernel-doc comment
Date: Fri, 10 Jan 2025 10:52:32 -0800

The kernel-doc comment for 'struct damos_quota' describes how "effective
quota" is calculated, but does not explain what it is.  Actually there was
an input[1] about it.  Add the explanation on the comment.

Also, fix a trivial typo on the comment block: s/empt/empty/
