Commit 5fb252cad61f20ae5d5a8b199f6cc4faf6f418e1, a cherry-pick of upstream commit e7cdf5c82f1773c3386b93bbcf13b9bfff29fa31, introduced a refcount imbalance and thus a struct drm_syncobj object leak which can be triggered with DRM_IOCTL_SYNCOBJ_HANDLE_TO_FD. The function drm_syncobj_handle_to_fd first calls drm_syncobj_find which increments the refcount of the object on success. In all of the drm_syncobj_handle_to_fd error paths, the refcount is decremented, but in the success path the refcount should remain at +1 as the struct drm_syncobj now belongs to the newly opened file. Instead, the refcount was incremented again to +2.
