Subject: mm/damon/core: avoid divide-by-zero from pseudo-moving window length calculation
Date: Thu, 19 Oct 2023 19:49:24 +0000

When calculating the pseudo-moving access rate, DAMON divides some values
by the maximum nr_accesses.  However, due to the type of the related
variables, simple division-based calculation of the divisor can return
zero.  As a result, divide-by-zero is possible.  Fix it by using
damon_max_nr_accesses(), which handles the case.

Note that this is a fix for a commit that not in the mainline but mm
tree.
