Summary
mm/damon/stat: fix memory leak on damon_start() failure in damon_stat_start()
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mm/damon/stat: fix memory leak on damonstart() failure in damonstat_start()

Destroy the DAMON context and reset the global pointer when damonstart() fails. Otherwise, the context allocated by damonstatbuildctx() is leaked, and the stale damonstatcontext pointer will be overwritten on the next enable attempt, making the old allocation permanently unreachable.
