SeongJae Park 772333cb2a mm/damon/dbgfs: rename monitor_on file to monitor_on_DEPRECATED
Kernel builders could silently enable CONFIG_DAMON_DBGFS_DEPRECATED. 
Users who manually check the files under the DAMON debugfs directory could
notice the deprecation owing to the 'DEPRECATED' DAMON debugfs file, but
there could be users who doesn't manually check the files.

Make the deprecation cannot be ignored in the case by renaming
'monitor_on' file, which is essential for real use of DAMON on runtime, to
'monitor_on_DEPRECATED'.  Still users who control DAMON via only
user-space tool could ignore the deprecation, but that's what the tool
developers should take care of.  DAMON user-space tool, damo, has also
made a change[1] for the purpose.

[1] commit 935dae76f2aee ("_damon_args: Rename --damon_interface to
    --damon_interface_DEPRECATED") of https://github.com/awslabs/damo

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.
