[ Upstream commit 09b90e2fe35faeace2488234e2a7728f2ea8ba26 ]
In nouveau_conn_reset(), if connector->state is true, __drm_atomic_helper_connector_destroy_state() will be called, but the memory pointed by asyc isn't freed. Memory leak happens in the following function __drm_atomic_helper_connector_reset(), where newly allocated asyc->state will be assigned to connector->state.
So using nouveau_conn_atomic_destroy_state() instead of __drm_atomic_helper_connector_destroy_state to free the "old" asyc.
Here the is the log showing memory leak.
