Subject: mm/damon/schemes: skip already charged targets and regions

If DAMOS has stopped applying action in the middle of a group of memory
regions due to its size quota, it starts the work again from the beginning
of the address space in the next charge window. If there is a huge memory
region at the beginning of the address space and it fulfills the scheme's
target data access pattern always, the action will applied to only the
region.

This commit mitigates the case by skipping memory regions that charged in
current charge window at the beginning of next charge window.
