mm/damon/core: implement DAMOS quota goals online commit function

Patch series "mm/damon: introduce DAMON parameters online commit function".

DAMON context struct (damon_ctx) contains user requests (parameters),
internal status, and operation results.  For flexible usages, DAMON API
users are encouraged to manually manipulate the struct.  That works well
for simple use cases.  However, it has turned out that it is not that
simple at least for online parameters udpate.  It is easy to forget
properly maintaining internal status and operation results.  Also, such
manual manipulation for online tuning is implemented multiple times on
DAMON API users including DAMON sysfs interface, DAMON_RECLAIM and
DAMON_LRU_SORT.  As a result, we have multiple sources of bugs for same
problem.  Actually we found and fixed a few bugs from online parameter
updating of DAMON API users.

Implement a function for online DAMON parameters update in core layer, and
replace DAMON API users' manual manipulation code for the use case.  The
core layer function could still have bugs, but this change reduces the
source of bugs for the problem to one place.


This patch (of 12):

Implement functions for supporting online DAMOS quota goals parameters
update.  The function receives two DAMOS quota structs.  One is the struct
that currently being used by a kdamond and therefore to be updated.  The
other one contains the parameters to be applied to the first one.  The
function applies the new parameters to the destination struct while
keeping/updating the internal status.  The function should be called from
parameters-update safe place, like DAMON callbacks.
