mm/damon/core: reduce range setup in damon_commit_target_regions()

damon_commit_target_regions() calls damon_set_regions() for updating the
destination target's monitoring target region boundaries.  It sets the
boundaries same to source target's monitoring regions, even if they are
adjacent.  Meanwhile, damon_set_region() sets the destination target
regions exactly the same to the source, only when the target regions are
empty.  When there are existing target regions, only a few regions are
expanded or shrunk to fit on only the boundaries for disjoint regions in
the source.  Hence the adjacent source ranges mean nothing in common
cases.  When there are many regions, such adjacent range setup is only a
waste of time and space.  We recently found [1] it is actually causing
memory overhead.  Setup the ranges for only distinct ranges.
