Commit 91fc6af21c61 ("mm/damon/core: avoid holes in newly set monitoring target ranges") in mm-unstable tree introduces 'damon_fill_regions_holes()', which does not check failures of 'damon_new_region()' call, so NULL dereferencing is available. This commit fixes the issue by checking failure of the function and returning an error code.
