As of this writing, multiple major distros including Alma, Amazon, Android, CentOS, Debian, Fedora, and Oracle are build-enabling DAMON (set CONFIG_DAMON[1]). Enabling it by default will save configuration setup time for the current and future DAMON users. Build-enabling DAMON does not introduce a real risk since it makes no behavioral change by default. It requires explicit user requests to do anything. Only one potential risk is making the size of the kernel a little bit larger. On a production-purpose configuration, it increases the resulting kernel package size by about 0.1 % of the final package file. I believe that's too small to be a real problem in common setups. Hence, the benefit of enabling CONFIG_DAMON outweighs the potential risk. Set CONFIG_DAMON by default.

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 reStructuredText 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.
