Subject: [PATCH v3] mm/damon/sysfs: return 'err' value when call kstrtoul() failed

From: Xin Hao <xhao@...ux.alibaba.com>

We had better return the 'err' value when calling kstrtoul() failed, so
the user will know why it really fails, there do little change, let it
return the 'err' value when failed.
