[Nouveau] kmemleak report: 5.15.0-rc3: nouveau_fence_new

[John Ogness <john.ogness@linutronix.de>]

Hello,

With 5.15.0-rc3 on my ppc64 (PowerMac G5) I am seeing kmemleak
reports. They are always 96 bytes and with the same stacktrace.

unreferenced object 0xc000000011d2a7e0 (size 96):
  comm "X", pid 1743, jiffies 4295010075 (age 5457.040s)
  hex dump (first 32 bytes):

    00 00 00 a9 77 41 30 23 c0 00 00 00 08 db b7 c8  ....wA0#........

If I decode this stacktrace using decode_stacktrace.sh so that the line
numbers can be seen, I get the following:

And lspci output:

0000:f0:10.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200 Ultra] (rev a1)

I have been running 5.12 on my machine without these reports. So it
might be something that showed up in 5.13 or 5.14 as well.

I do not know if this is a good channel for reporting this, so please
let me know if I should report it somewhere else. Also let me know if
you need any additional information from me.
