[Intel-gfx] GEM memory horror is back :/

Hi,

I am not exactly sure what caused it, but today my system did not
hibernate because too little swap-space.
/proc/dri/0/gem_objects told me there were over 1Gb of GEM objects
arround, and I have only 1,5GB swap (which is usually more than enough
for my type of workload).

I remember this problem was solved with 2.6.32.2+2.9.1, currently I am
running 2.6.32.11 + 2.11.

Any idea what could be the cause?
Should I investigate further, and if so, how?

Thanks, Clemens
