stable inclusion from stable-v6.6.9 commit e93bcaebda90c237b2ce2b4e0ee7897b83b5cbf0 bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I99TJK
Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=...
--------------------------------
[ Upstream commit 6376a824595607e99d032a39ba3394988b4fce96 ]
The cleanup tasks of kdamond threads including reset of corresponding DAMON context's ->kdamond field and decrease of global nr_running_ctxs counter is supposed to be executed by kdamond_fn(). However, commit 0f91d13366a4 ("mm/damon: simplify stop mechanism") made neither damon_start() nor damon_stop() ensure the corresponding kdamond has started the execution of kdamond_fn().
As a result, the cleanup can be skipped if damon_stop() is called fast enough after the previous damon_start(). Especially the skipped reset of ->kdamond could cause a use-after-free.
Fix it by waiting for start of kdamond_fn() execution from damon_start().
