Hi,

The delete mutex could result in unexpected behavior because it's not always the case that acpi_ut_remove_reference will clean up the object. This function cleans up the object if the reference count is 0 so we should add the delete mutex during the deletion instead.
Could you try this code to see if it fixes the leak?
