Subject: [PATCH v16 05/14] mm/damon: Allow dynamic monitoring target regions update

From: SeongJae Park <sjpark@...zon.de>

The monitoring target regions can be dynamically changed.  For example,
virtual memory mapping could be dynamically updated and physical memory
could be hot-plugged.

To handle such cases, this commit adds a monitoring attribute, ``regions
update interval`` and a callback ``init_target_regions`` in the
monitoring context.  If the two fields are properly set, DAMON will call
the ``init_target_regions()`` callback for every ``regions update
interval``.  In the callback, users can check current memory mapping or
hotplugged physical memory sections and appropriately update the
monitoring target regions of the context.
