commit 19467a950b49432a84bf6dbadbbb17bdf89418b7 upstream. damon_sysfs_set_targets(), which updates the targets of the context for online commitment, do not remove targets that removed from the corresponding sysfs files. As a result, more than intended targets of the context can exist and hence consume memory and monitoring CPU resource more than expected. Fix it by removing all targets of the context and fill up again using the user input. This could cause unnecessary memory dealloc and realloc operations, but this is not a hot code path. Also, note that damon_target is stateless, and hence no data is lost.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
