mm/damon/dbgfs: check if rm_contexts input is for a real context 

A user could write a name of a file under 'damon/' debugfs directory,
which is not a user-created context, to 'rm_contexts' file.  In the case,
'dbgfs_rm_context()' just assumes it's the valid DAMON context directory
only if a file of the name exist.  As a result, invalid memory access
could happen as below.  Fix the bug by checking if the given input is for
a directory.  This check can filter out non-context inputs because
directories under 'damon/' debugfs directory can be created via only
'mk_contexts' file.

This bug has found by syzbot[1].
