mm/damon/core: add damon_ctx->addr_unit

Patch series "mm/damon: support ARM32 with LPAE", v3.

Previously, DAMON's physical address space monitoring only supported
memory ranges below 4GB on LPAE-enabled systems.  This was due to the use
of 'unsigned long' in 'struct damon_addr_range', which is 32-bit on ARM32
even with LPAE enabled[1].

To add DAMON support for ARM32 with LPAE enabled, a new core layer
parameter called 'addr_unit' was introduced[2].  Operations set layer can
translate a core layer address to the real address by multiplying the
parameter value to the core layer address.  Support of the parameter is up
to each operations layer implementation, though.  For example, operations
set implementations for virtual address space can simply ignore the
parameter.  Add the support on paddr, which is the DAMON operations set
implementation for the physical address space, as we have a clear use case
for that.

This patch (of 11):

In some cases, some of the real address that handled by the underlying
operations set cannot be handled by DAMON since it uses only 'unsinged
long' as the address type.  Using DAMON for physical address space
monitoring of 32 bit ARM devices with large physical address extension
(LPAE) is one example[1].

Add a parameter name 'addr_unit' to core layer to help such cases.  DAMON
core API callers can set it as the scale factor that will be used by the
operations set for translating the core layer's addresses to the real
address by multiplying the parameter value to the core layer address.
Support of the parameter is up to each operations set layer.  The support
from the physical address space operations set (paddr) will be added with
following commits.
