commit ae636ae2bbfd9279f5681dbf320d1da817e52b68 upstream.
DAMON sysfs interface's before_damos_apply callback (damon_sysfs_before_damos_apply()), which creates the DAMOS tried regions for each DAMOS action applied region, is not handling the allocation failure for the sysfs directory data. As a result, NULL pointer derefeence is possible. Fix it by handling the case.
