It will never get a NULL page by pte_page(), thus remove the redundant
page validation to fix below Smatch static checker warning.

I guess the issue has reported in the open place[1], right? I think it would
be better to add the link in this commit message, so that future readers can
read and learn from your discussion in the mail thread.

OK.



mm/damon/vaddr.c:405 damon_hugetlb_mkold()
warn: 'page' can't be NULL.

Sorry for continuously obsessing about this trivial and personal taste, but...
Could you please indent quoting blocks like above (hopefully with 4 spaces)?
That makes the message much easier to read for me, and I'd like to keep the
commit messages for DAMON consistent and easy to read, at least for me.

Sure, I will keep the rule of DAMON in mind.

Andrew, could you help to change the commit message format as SeongJae suggested when you apply this patch? Thanks.


Other than that,
