mm/damon/core: avoid overflow in damon_feed_loop_next_input()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mm/damon/core: avoid overflow in damon_feed_loop_next_input()

damon_feed_loop_next_input() is inefficient and fragile to overflows. 
Specifically, 'score_goal_diff_bp' calculation can overflow when 'score'
is high.  The calculation is actually unnecessary at all because 'goal' is
a constant of value 10,000.  Calculation of 'compensation' is again
fragile to overflow.  Final calculation of return value for under-achiving
case is again fragile to overflow when the current score is
under-achieving the target.

Add two corner cases handling at the beginning of the function to make the
body easier to read, and rewrite the body of the function to avoid
overflows and the unnecessary bp value calcuation.

CWE-190 Integer Overflow or Wraparound

The product performs a calculation that can produce an integer overflow or wraparound when the logic assumes that the resulting value will always be larger than the original value. This occurs when an integer value is incremented to a value that is too large to store in the associated representation. When this occurs, the value may become a very small or negative number.
