Message-Id: <20211027130517.4404-1-changbin.du@gmail.com>
Date: Wed, 27 Oct 2021 21:05:17 +0800
From: Changbin Du <changbin.du@...il.com>
To: Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org>

Subject: [PATCH v2] mm/damon: simplify stop mechanism
An kernel thread can exit gracefully with kthread_stop(). So we don't need
a new flag 'kdamond_stop'. And to make sure the task struct is not freed
when accessing it, get reference of it before termination.
