[RFC PATCH -next 01/16] mm/damon/core: add damon_ctx->addr_unit

[Quanmin Yan <yanquanmin1@huawei.com>]

From: SeongJae Park <sj@kernel.org>

In some cases, some of the real address that handled by the underlying
operations set cannot be handled by DAMON since it uses only 'unsinged
long' as the address type.  Using DAMON for physical address space
monitoring of 32 bit ARM devices with large physical address extension
(LPAE) is one example[1].

Add a parameter name 'addr_unit' to core layer to help such cases.
DAMON core API callers can set it as the scale factor that will be used
by the operations set for translating the core layer's addresses to the
real address by multiplying the parameter value to the core layer
address.  Support of the parameter is up to each operations set layer.
The support from the physical address space operations set (paddr) will
be added with following commits.
