Some objects were orphaned if the link died early.
Motivation
fixing this memory leak
Technical Details
So, I have a flaky dp cable and a 165Hz monitor. Because the link died during validation before the streams were committed to the display manager, the GTT entry would be left orphaned. So, I added some code to clean up the allocated objects.
Test Plan
I'm new here and don't know what further tests to run.
