Title:
  Mir Mesa EGL platform leaks memory with every frame

Status in mesa package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  The Mir Mesa EGL platform leaks memory with every frame. This is the
  result of incorrect handling of the buffer objects we create from the
  incoming Mir buffers.

  The problem is exhibited in the attached 'massif.out.leak' file.  An
  excerpt from the result of ms_print for this file:

  I have attached a patch (fix-mir-mesa-egl-gbm-bo-leak.diff) to get
  some wider review before creating a final patch for the ubuntu
  package. With this patch the leak is fixed as shown in the attached
  'massif.out.fixed' file:
