mm/damon/core: update monitoring results for new monitoring attributes
region->nr_accesses is the number of sampling intervals in the last aggregation interval that access to the region has found, and region->age is the number of aggregation intervals that its access pattern has maintained. Hence, the real meaning of the two fields' values is depending on current sampling and aggregation intervals. This means the values need to be updated for every sampling and/or aggregation intervals updates. As DAMON core doesn't, it is a duty of in-kernel DAMON framework applications like DAMON sysfs interface, or the userspace users. Handling it in userspace or in-kernel DAMON application is complicated, inefficient, and repetitive compared to doing the update in DAMON core. Do the update in DAMON core.
