The example usage of DAMOS filter sysfs files, specifically the part of
'matching' file writing for memcg type filter, is wrong. The intention is
to exclude pages of a memcg that already getting enough care from a given
scheme, but the example is setting the filter to apply the scheme to only
the pages of the memcg. Fix it.

# # further filter out all cgroups except one at '/having_care_already'
echo memcg > 1/type
echo /having_care_already > 1/memcg_path
- echo N > 1/matching
+ echo Y > 1/matching
Note that ``anon`` and ``memcg`` filters are currently supported only when
``paddr`` :ref:`implementation <sysfs_context>` is being used.
