selftests/damon: fix unnecessary compilation warnings

When testing overflow and overread, there is no need to keep unnecessary
compilation warnings, we should simply ignore them.

The motivation for this patch is to eliminate the compilation warning,
maybe one day we will compile the kernel with "-Werror -Wall", at which
point this compilation warning will turn into a compilation error, we
should fix this error in advance.

How to reproduce the problem (with gcc-11.3.1):

$ make -C tools/testing/selftests/
...
warning: `write' reading 4294967295 bytes from a region of size 1
[-Wstringop-overread]
warning: `read' writing 4294967295 bytes into a region of size 25
overflows the destination [-Wstringop-overflow=]

"-Wno-stringop-overread" is supported at least in gcc-11.1.0.

selftests/damon: test debugfs file reads/writes with huge count

DAMON debugfs interface users were able to trigger warning by writing
some files with arbitrarily large 'count' parameter. The issue is fixed
with commit db7a347b26fe ("mm/damon/dbgfs: use '__GFP_NOWARN' for
user-specified size buffer allocation"). This commit adds a test case
for the issue in DAMON selftests to avoid future regressions.
