[PATCH 2/2] mm/damonn/lru_sort: handle ctx allocation failure

[SeongJae Park <sj@kernel.org>]

DAMON_LRU_SORT allocates the damon_ctx object for its kdamond in its
init function.  damon_lru_sort_enabled_store() wrongly assumes the
allocation will always succeed once tried.  If the damon_ctx allocation
was failed, therefore, code execution reaches to damon_commit_ctx()
while 'ctx' is NULL.  As a result, it dereferences the NULL 'ctx'
pointer.  Avoid the NULL dereference  by returning -ENOMEM if 'ctx' is
NULL.
