Implement a sample DAMON module that shows how self-tuned DAMON-based
memory tiering can be written. It is a sample since the purpose is to
give an idea about how it can be implemented and perform, rather than be
used on general production setups. Especially, it supports only two tiers
memory setup having only one CPU-attached NUMA node.

There is a typo in the Kconfig file of the damon sample module. Correct
it: s/sameple/sample/

DAMON is not only for monitoring of access patterns, but also for
access-aware system operations. For the system operations, DAMON provides
a feature called DAMOS (Data Access Monitoring-based Operation Schemes).
There is no sample API usage of DAMOS, though. Copy the working set size
estimation sample modules with changed names of the module and symbols, to
use it as a skeleton for a sample module showing the DAMOS API usage. The
following commit will make it proactively reclaim cold memory of the given
process, using DAMOS.

Patch series "mm/damon: add sample modules".
Implement a proactive cold memory regions reclaiming logic of prcl sample
module using DAMOS. The logic treats memory regions that not accessed at
all for five or more seconds as cold, and reclaim those as soon as found.
This patch (of 5):
Add a skeleton for a sample DAMON static module that can be used for
estimating working set size of a given process. Note that it is a static
module since DAMON is not exporting symbols to loadable modules for now.
It exposes two module parameters, namely 'pid' and 'enable'. 'pid' will
specify the process that the module will estimate the working set size of.
'enable' will receive whether to start or stop the estimation. Because
this is just a skeleton, the parameters do nothing, though. The
functionalities will be implemented by following commits.
