Queued for 6.12, thanks.
I'm sorry but could you please unqueue? Sashiko found [1] a bug that can leak

No problem, now dropped.
Also, could we avoid queueing DAMON patches that marked as RFC in general?
Sorry about this. We don't normally get RFC tags for backports so my brain
didn't register this at all :)
