[PATCH 0/2] mm/damon: add trace events for auto-tuned monitoring intervals and DAMOS quota

[SeongJae Park]

The aim-oriented auto-tuning features for monitoring intervals and DAMOS
quota are important and recommended.  Add tracepoints for observabilities
of those tuned values and the tuning itself.

[PATCH 2/2] mm/damon: add trace event for effective size quota

[SeongJae Park]

Aim-oriented DAMOS quota auto-tuning is an important and recommended
feature for DAMOS users.  Add a trace event for the observability of the
tuned quota and tuning itself.

Please explain to me why you are using a conditional here?

It's set to true, so it's not even a conditional anymore. The compiler
will likely optimize it out!

There is no reason to make this conditional.  Maybe I was out of my mind.
