mm/damon/sysfs: check error from damon_sysfs_update_target()
commit b4936b544b08ed44949055b92bd25f77759ebafc upstream. Patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: fix unhandled return values". Some of DAMON sysfs interface code is not handling return values from some functions. As a result, confusing user input handling or NULL-dereference is possible. Check those properly. This patch (of 3): damon_sysfs_update_target() returns error code for failures, but its caller, damon_sysfs_set_targets() is ignoring that. The update function seems making no critical change in case of such failures, but the behavior will look like DAMON sysfs is silently ignoring or only partially accepting the user input. Fix it.
