Subject: samples/damon/mtier: support boot time enable setup
Date: Sun, 6 Jul 2025 12:32:04 -0700

If 'enable' parameter of the 'mtier' DAMON sample module is set at boot
time via the kernel command line, memory allocation is tried before the
slab is initialized.  As a result kernel NULL pointer dereference BUG can
happen.  Fix it by checking the initialization status.
