mm/damon/vaddr: fix issue in damon_va_evenly_split_region()

Patch series "mm/damon/vaddr: Fix issue in
damon_va_evenly_split_region()".  v2.

According to the logic of damon_va_evenly_split_region(), currently
following split case would not meet the expectation:

  Suppose DAMON_MIN_REGION=0x1000,
  Case: Split [0x0, 0x3000) into 2 pieces, then the result would be
        acutually 3 regions:
          [0x0, 0x1000), [0x1000, 0x2000), [0x2000, 0x3000)
        but NOT the expected 2 regions:
          [0x0, 0x1000), [0x1000, 0x3000) !!!

The root cause is that when calculating size of each split piece in
damon_va_evenly_split_region():

  `sz_piece = ALIGN_DOWN(sz_orig / nr_pieces, DAMON_MIN_REGION);`

both the dividing and the ALIGN_DOWN may cause loss of precision, then
each time split one piece of size 'sz_piece' from origin 'start' to 'end'
would cause more pieces are split out than expected!!!

To fix it, count for each piece split and make sure no more than
'nr_pieces'.  In addition, add above case into damon_test_split_evenly().

And add 'nr_piece == 1' check in damon_va_evenly_split_region() for better
code readability and add a corresponding kunit testcase.
