Subject: Docs/admin-guide/mm/damon/stat: document aggr_interval_us parameter
Date: Sun, 26 Oct 2025 11:22:12 -0700
Commit cc7ceb1d14b0 ("mm/damon/stat: expose the current tuned aggregation
interval"), has introduced 'aggr_interval_us' parameter for DAMON_STAT.
But the new parameter is not yet documented. Document it on the usage
document for the module.
