Re: [PATCH 1/1] mm/damon/core: Remove unnecessary zero-initialization in damon_new_ctx()

[SJ Park]

Hello Adrian,


Let's use lowercase for the first word of the subject (s/Remove/remove/), as
that's the convention in mm.

Makes sense, thank you for this patch.

I applied  this patch to damon/next [1] tree after adjusting the subject as I
abovely mentioned.  Let me know if you dislike the change.  We are now quite
close to next merge window.  It may better to focus on making mm.git more
stabilized and therefore ready for the next merge window, rather than adding
more changes that are not really urgent.  I understand this series is not
really urgent.  Hence, Andrew might not add this patch until next -rc1 release.
In the case, I will request adding this to mm.git after next -rc1 release.  So,
no action from your side is needed for now.  Let me know if you think this is
really  urgent.
