Subject: mm/damon/core: hide core-private damon_ctx fields
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was

Subject: mm/damon/core: hide core-private damon_ctx fields
Date: Tue, 14 Jul 2026 07:35:43 -0700

'ops', 'probes', 'adaptive_targets', 'schemes', and 'rnd_state' fields of damon_ctx are intended to be used by only the DAMON core layer. However, those are mistakenly not marked as private. Mark as private.
