And, v6.1.y has announced to be an LTS[1]. Though the announcement was there for a while, some people might not noticed that so far. Also, some users could depend on it and have problems at movng to the alternative (DAMON sysfs interface). For such cases, note DAMON debugfs interface as deprecated, and contacts to ask helps on the Kconfig.
