The quilt patch titled Subject: mm/damon/core: handle error from 'damon_fill_regions_holes()' has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-damon-core-avoid-holes-in-newly-set-monitoring-target-ranges-fix.patch This patch was dropped because it was folded into mm-damon-core-avoid-holes-in-newly-set-monitoring-target-ranges.patch ------------------------------------------------------ From: SeongJae Park <sj@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/damon/core: handle error from 'damon_fill_regions_holes()' Date: Tue, 13 Sep 2022 21:54:20 +0000 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.
