[PATCH 1/2] mm/damon/core: initialize damos_quota_goal->last_psi_total

[SJ Park <sj@kernel.org>]

When DAMOS_QUOTA_SOME_MEM_PSI_US metric damos quota goal is set, the PSI
delta for the feedback loop is calculated using
damos_quota_goal->last_psi_total.  However, it is initialized only after
the first feedback loop.  The first iteration of the loop uses the
uninitialized value.  As a result, the feedback loop can change the
effective quota in an unexpected way at the first iteration.

The user impact of the issue is not big, because the issue impacts only
the first iteration of the feedback loop.  The feedback loop also has an
internal cap of the quota adjustment.  The wrong adjustment will soon be
corrected over a few iterations.  For this reason, doing no
initialization at commit time was intentional.  It is also explicitly
commented.  That said, nobody likes behaviors that are unexpected or
difficult to be expected.  Fixing it is also simple and not expensive.

Initialize the field at the beginning of kdamond and each commit of
SOME_MEM_PSI_US type quota goals.

The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.
