The TODO comment in nid_show() suggested returning an error if the goal was
not using nid. However, this comment was found to be inaccurate and
misleading.This patch removes the TODO comment without changing any
existing behavior.

This change follows feedback from SJ who pointed out [1] that wiring-order
independence is expected and the function should simply show the last
set value. and [2] checkpatch.pl complain about number of chars per line

No functional code changes were made.

Tested with KUnit:
- Built kernel with KUnit and DAMON sysfs tests enabled.
- Executed KUnit tests:
  ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --kunitconfig ./mm/damon/tests/
- All 25 tests passed, including damon_sysfs_test_add_targets.

This is another revision of your previous patch [1], right?  Thank you for
fixing the things I commented on.

That said, marking the fact that this is a new revision of other one on
subject, for example, setting the subject prefix as "[PATCH v2]", and adding
changelog from the previous version in commentary section could help review.
Please consider doing so from your next patch.  Please refer to the related
docs [2,3] for more details about that.

And you should have put the above two lines before the above Signed-off-by:
line.  Please consider doing so from the next time.  Again, read the document
[1] for more details.

I found Andrew picked this patch on mm tree, adjusting the above two lines
properly [4].  So no new revision would be required.  But I'm noting this for
your next work.

And this results in the code having two empty lines.  Just one single empty
line would be enough.  But that's too trivial, so I wouldn't request a new
revision to you, or in-queue direct fix to Andrew.

I only hope my trivial comments to help your future patches be easier to review
and more smoothly be merged :)

So, thank you for this nice patch.
