Subject: mm/damon/core: make charge_addr_from aware of end-address exclusivity
Date: Mon, 27 Apr 2026 21:29:40 -0700

DAMON region end address is exclusive one, but charge_addr_from is assigned assuming the end address is inclusive. As a result, DAMOS action to next up to min_region_sz memory can be skipped. This is quite negligible user impact. But, the bug is a bug that can be very simply fixed. Fix the wrong assignment to respect the exclusiveness of the address.

The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.

Fixes 50585192bc2e ("mm/damon/schemes: skip already charged targets and regions")
