Since the version next-20250205 [2], we are seeing the following regression ````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` <4>[ 314.781734] kmemleak: Found object by alias at 0xffffffffa0595000 <4>[ 314.781738] CPU: 11 UID: 0 PID: 6042 Comm: i915_selftest Tainted: G U 6.14.0-rc1-next-20250205-next-20250205-ged88b8b82c53+ #1 <4>[ 314.781741] Tainted: [U]=USER <4>[ 314.781741] Hardware name: ASUS System Product Name/PRIME Z790-P WIFI, BIOS 0812 02/24/2023 <4>[ 314.781742] Call Trace: <4>[ 314.781743] <TASK> <4>[ 314.781744] dump_stack_lvl+0x91/0xf0 <4>[ 314.781749] dump_stack+0x10/0x20 <4>[ 314.781751] __lookup_object+0x90/0xa0 <4>[ 314.781755] __find_and_get_object+0x6c/0x190 <4>[ 314.781758] paint_ptr+0x1b/0xa0 <4>[ 314.781759] kmemleak_not_leak+0x33/0x70 <4>[ 314.781762] load_module+0xa20/0x2d10 ````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` Details log can be found in [3].
