Subject: [PATCH v2 1/8] Docs/admin-guide/mm/damon/start: fix grammar
Date: Mon,  2 Nov 2026 16:59:31 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261103005940.91432-2-sj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261103005940.91432-1-sj@kernel.org>

From: Aveline Noir <jm5905938@gmail.com>

Fix a few grammar slips in the getting-started guide, like "make DAMON
monitors" and a region "that has not accessed".

"The line of the commands" used to be "The first two lines".  With only
one masim line left, I make it "The first line".
