Subject: mm/damon/core-test: fix memory leak in damon_new_ctx()
Date: Mon, 18 Sep 2023 20:09:51 +0800
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_ctx which is allocated by kzalloc() in damon_new_ctx() in
damon_test_ops_registration() and damon_test_set_attrs() are not freed.
So use damon_destroy_ctx() to free it. After applying this patch, the
following memory leak is never detected
