mm/damon/core: prevent unnecessary overflow in damos_set_effective_quota()
On 32-bit systems, the throughput calculation in
damos_set_effective_quota() is prone to unnecessary multiplication
overflow. Using mult_frac() to fix it.
Andrew Paniakin also recently found and privately reported this issue, on
64 bit systems. This can also happen on 64-bit systems, once the charged
size exceeds ~17 TiB. On systems running for long time in production,
this issue can actually happen.
More specifically, when a DAMOS scheme having the time quota run for
longtime, throughput calculation can overflow and set esz too small. As a
result, speed of the scheme get unexpectedly slow.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
