[RFC PATCH 1/2] mm/damon/stat: add a parameter for reading kdamond pid

[SeongJae Park <sj@kernel.org>]

Knowing the pid of the kdamonds can help user-space management including
monitoring of DAMON's system resource consumption.  To make it easier,
DAMON_SYSFS, DAMON_RECLAIM and DAMON_LRU_SORT provide the pid
information.  DAMON_STAT is not providing it, though.  Expose the pid of
DAMON_STAT kdamond via a new read-only module parameter, namely
kdamond_pid.  This also makes DAMON modules usage more standardized,
because DAMON_RECLAIM and DAMON_LRU_SORT also provide the information
via their read-only parameters of the same name.
