Subject: mm/damon/core-test: fix memory leak in damon_new_region()
Date: Mon, 18 Sep 2023 20:09:50 +0800

Patch series "mm/damon/core-test: Fix memory leaks in core-test", v3.

There are a few memory leaks in core-test which are detected by kmemleak. 
This patchset fixes the issues.


This patch (of 2):

When CONFIG_DAMON_KUNIT_TEST=y and making CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK=y
and CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_AUTO_SCAN=y, the below memory leak is detected.

The damon_region which is allocated by kmem_cache_alloc() in
damon_new_region() in damon_test_regions() and
damon_test_update_monitoring_result() are not freed.

So for damon_test_regions(), replace damon_del_region() call with
damon_destroy_region() so that it calls both damon_del_region() and
damon_free_region(), the latter will free the damon_region. For
damon_test_update_monitoring_result(), call damon_free_region() to
free it. After applying this patch, the following memory leak is never
detected.
