Hello Enze,

get_maintainer.pl suggests to Cc linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org too.  Adding it
to Cc list.

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.
