PATCH 1/1 Docs/mm/damon/design: fix broken :ref: usage and a typo

From: "Zenghui Yu (Huawei)" <[email protected]>

The Statistics section refers readers to the DAMON sysfs interface documentation for how to read the statistics, using a ':ref:' role. However, the role name has a superfluous 's' appended (':ref:s' instead of ':ref:'). Moreover, its target label 'sysfs_stats' does not exist; the correct label is 'sysfs_schemes_stats'. Fix both.

Also fix a typo, 'frequenceis' -> 'frequencies', in the Adaptive Regions Adjustment section.

Good eyes, thank you for finding and fixing these!

This patch is applied to damon/next [1] tree. If this patch is not added to mm.git in short term (~1 week?), I will ask mm.git maintainer (Andrew Morton) to pick this. So, no action from your side is needed for now. If it seems I also forgot doing that or you cannot wait for my action, please feel free to directly ask that to Andrew.
