Well, Saradomin could have come to his senses in relation to the Naragi relatively quickly, or he may not have..Not enough information to make a judgement.
I was using the terms "make amends", "redemption" and "atoning" interchangeably, I don't like to use the same descriptive word over and over, it can make my posts seem dull for those who read them.
I consider Saradomin making amends to be him seeking redemption, he's doing an action (defending the Naragi) to redeem himself or "fix" a problem from the past, as you put it.
So I don't see much difference between the two.
To add to this, I haven't said Saradomin won't make future mistakes, only that he learnt what he did was wrong (as evidenced by his decision to protect the Naragi from Tuska).
I'd argue having deep guilt and regret (where his actions have haunted him for a long time as empires have risen and fallen, mentioned in the Death of Chivalry) does impact on Saradomin's likelihood to do a similar thing again.
The Naragi had a profound effect on him so he's much less likely to commit such acts.
