So what you describe could only happen if there's an imbalance elsewhere such that amdgpu_bo_unref is called more often than amdgpu_bo_ref, or maybe if amdgpu_bo_reserve fails in amdgpu_display_unpin_work_func (in which case the "failed to reserve buffer after flip" error message should appear in dmesg).

I did some tests, the warning can be triggered.

pin/unpin operations in *_crtc_do_set_base() and
amdgpu_display_crtc_page_flip_target() are mixed.
