We were not correctly unpinning no longer needed buffers. In particular vmw_buffer_object, which is internally often pinned on creation wasn't unpinned on destruction and none of the internal MOB buffers were unpinned before being put back. Technically this existed for a long time but commit 57fcd550eb15 ("drm/ttm: Warn on pinning without holding a reference") introduced a WARN_ON which was filling up the kernel logs rather quickly. Quite frankly internal usage of vmw_buffer_object and in general pinning needs to be refactored in vmwgfx but for now this makes it work.

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.
