SeongJae Park 6a080670d6 mm/damon/sysfs: handle 'state' file inputs for every sampling interval if possible
DAMON sysfs interface need to access kdamond-touching data for some of
kdamond user commands.  It uses ->after_aggregation() kdamond callback to
safely access the data in the case.  It had to use the aggregation
interval callback because that was the only callback that users can access
complete monitoring results.

Since patch series "mm/damon: provide pseudo-moving sum based access
rate", which starts from commit 78fbfb155d ("mm/damon/core: define and
use a dedicated function for region access rate update"), DAMON provides
good-to-use quality moitoring results for every sampling interval.  It
aims to help users who need to quickly retrieve the monitoring results. 
When the aggregation interval is set too long and therefore waiting for
the aggregation interval can degrade user experience, or when the access
pattern is expected to be significantly changed[1] could be such cases.

However, because DAMON sysfs interface is still handling the commands per
aggregation interval, the end user cannot get the benefit.  Update DAMON
sysfs interface to handle kdamond commands for every sampling interval if
applicable.  Specifically, all kdamond data accessing commands except
'commit' command are applicable.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
