I found it while testing DAMON_STAT on 32-bit. The upper percentiles can stay at zero or keep old values. If someone uses them to judge how much memory is cold or to choose a reclaim threshold, they could get the wrong picture. I'll send the fix and test results in a separate mail. Thanks, Aveline Noir
