Good point!

I haven't read the below part yet, but seems you're gonna use 'struct
damon_addr_range' instead of 'struct damon_{reclai,lru_sort}_ram_walk_arg'.

And I think we have already discussed about this before:
https://lore.kernel.org/damon/20220818172322.51705-1-sj@xxxxxxxxxx/

My point is, we might add some more fileds to 'struct damon_addr_range' in a
future, though it seems very unlikely at the moment. Sorry for not making my
opinion clear enough.

'ops-common.c' is for code that common in monitoring operations
implementations. I'd prefer to have yet another source file for the DAMON
modules including reclaim and lru_sort, say, 'modules-common.c'.

Also, as 'get_monitoring_region()' is not a 'static' function anymore, let's
have a prefix to distinguish with other functions, say, 'damon_modules_'?

Let's move it to a dedicated source file, say, 'modules-common.h'
