Good catch, but looking at the code it seems that what is being
leaked is the memory pointed to by kset.kobj.name which is allocated
in kobject_set_name(&kset.kobj, ...), which is called right
before the call to kset_register().

Modify the description with this explanation and repost the patch and I'll R-B it then.
Something like:

Now, if there's a leak of dev_set_name(), then that would be something
else/another patch.

The rest below looks good.

Since this patch touches only files under drm/amd/amdgpu/ and for a highly AMD-specific
feature, you didn't need to spam the dri-dev ML--amdgfx ML should be plenty enough.
