igt_ppgtt_pin_update() invokes i915_gem_context_get_vm_rcu(), which
returns a reference of the i915_address_space object to "vm" with
increased refcount.
When igt_ppgtt_pin_update() returns, "vm" becomes invalid, so the
refcount should be decreased to keep refcount balanced.
The reference counting issue happens in two exception handling paths of
igt_ppgtt_pin_update(). When i915_gem_object_create_internal() returns
IS_ERR, the refcnt increased by i915_gem_context_get_vm_rcu() is not
decreased, causing a refcnt leak.
Fix this issue by jumping to "out_vm" label when
i915_gem_object_create_internal() returns IS_ERR.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
