One nit below, nevertheless

This sounds not right from style perspective.
You have completely uninitialized r on stack, then you assign only one value
for immediate use here and...

...hiding this fact here. Which I would expect that &r may be rewritten here.

I would leave these unchanged and simple assign the value in
bitmap_set_region().
