It should be called damon_del_region() before free each region, so use
damon_destroy_region() instead of damon_free_region().

Hi Yajun,

What 'damon_del_region()' does is deleting the region from target's regions
linked list so that nobody references it later after its freed.  However, as
each region is linked to one target, and as we will free the target here, the
list will also be freed.  Therefore, we don't need to worry about future
references to the region.

Anything I'm missing?


Thanks,
SJ
