From manual code review, I found below bugs in DAMON modules. DAMON sample modules crash if those are enabled at boot time, via kernel command line. A similar issue was found and fixed on DAMON non-sample modules in the past, but we didn't check that for sample modules. DAMON non-sample modules are not setting 'enabled' parameters accordingly when real enabling is failed. Honggyu found and fixed[1] this type of bugs in DAMON sample modules, and my inspection was motivated by the great work. Kudos to Honggyu. Finally, DAMON_RECLIAM is mistakenly losing scheme internal status due to misuse of damon_commit_ctx(). DAMON_LRU_SORT has a similar misuse, but fortunately it is not causing real status loss. Fix the bugs. Since these are similar patterns of bugs that were found in the past, it would be better to add tests or refactor the code, in future. This patch (of 6): If 'enable' parameter of the 'wsse' DAMON sample module is set at boot time via the kernel command line, memory allocation is tried before the slab is initialized. As a result kernel NULL pointer dereference BUG can happen. Fix it by checking the initialization status.
