A DAMON sysfs interface user can start DAMON with a scheme, remove the sysfs directory for the scheme, and then ask update of the scheme's stats. Because the schemes stats update logic isn't aware of the situation, it results in an invalid memory access. Fix the bug by checking if the scheme sysfs directory exists.
