From: Liew Rui Yan <aethernet65535@gmail.com>
The current implementation of damon_hot_score() uses a manual for-loop
to calculate the value of 'age_in_log'. This can be efficiently replaced
by ilog2(), which is semantically more appropriate for calculating the
logarithmic value of age.
In a simulated-kernel-module performance test with 10,000,000 iterations,
this optimization showed a significant reduction in latency (average
latency reduced from ~12ns to ~1ns).
Test results from the simulated-kernel-module:
- ilog2:

Forwarding Sashiko review in a review format with my inline comment, for
sharing more details of my view and doing more discussions via mails if needed.

We decided to use ilog2() since it makes the code easier to read in my taste.
So, this is not a blocker for this patch.

Problem
=======
Writing invalid parameters to sysfs followed by 'commit_inputs=Y' fails
silently (no error returned to shell), because the validation happens
asynchronously in the kdamond.
Solution
========
To fix this, the commit_inputs_store() callback now uses damon_call() to
synchronously commit parameters in the kdamond thread's safe context.
This ensures that validation errors are returned immediately to
userspace, following the pattern used by DAMON_SYSFS.
Changes
=======
1. Added commit_inputs_store() and commit_inputs_fn() to commit
synchronously.
2. Removed handle_commit_inputs().
This change is motivated from another discussion [1].
