[PATCH v2] samples/damon/mtier: use damon_addr_range consistently

From: Enze Li

Date: Mon Jul 20 2026 - 09:34:04 EST


The DAMON provides struct damon_addr_range for unified address range
management. However, the mtier sample still defines a local struct
region_range and mixes its usage with struct damon_addr_range in
damon_sample_mtier_build_ctx().

This patch removes the local struct region_range and changes the
parameter type of nid_to_phys() to struct damon_addr_range. It also
gets rid of the now-redundant local variable and pass the address range
directly to damon_set_regions().

v2:
- Fix inaccurate "identical layout" claim in commit message
- Remove redundant range variable and pass &addr directly to
damon_set_regions()
