Subject: mm/damon/core: prevent unnecessary overflow in damos_set_effective_quota()

On 32-bit systems, the throughput calculation in
damos_set_effective_quota() is prone to unnecessary multiplication
overflow.  Using mult_frac() to fix it.

Andrew Paniakin also recently found and privately reported this issue, on
64 bit systems.  This can also happen on 64-bit systems, once the charged
size exceeds ~17 TiB.  On systems running for long time in production,
this issue can actually happen.

More specifically, when a DAMOS scheme having the time quota run for
longtime, throughput calculation can overflow and set esz too small.  As a
result, speed of the scheme get unexpectedly slow.
