Thank you! 5.4.0-107 fixes memory leaks since 5.4.0-99
I just wanted to let you know that the 107 kernel is the first since the 99 kernel to close a memory leak that impacts the cinnamon screensaver in a major way. I booted this kernel over 3 and a half days ago and there has yet to be a cinnamon restart due to memory leaks. The kernels between these two leaked to such a great degree that cinnamon was restarting every two hours or so while the screensaver was running.
If possible, please keep whatever patch is in 99 and 107 that is not in the intervening kernels to keep this leak closed.
It impacts other programs as well, but the cinnamon screensaver leak is particularly visible and annoying. This is with Cinnamon 5.2.7 on linux mint x64 20.3 release.
