I've looked at this issue in some detail now.  The initial memory leak
was introduced in linux kernel version v6.0, and  the fix was introduced
in the v6.9 kernel version.  This means that the 6.5, and 6.8 based
ubuntu kernels will contain this memory leak.

I will submit a fix for the generic 6.8, and generic 6.5 kernels so all
ubuntu kernels will receive the fix.


For reference:  The commit that introduces this issue is 
3cd3399dd7a84ada85cb839989cdf7310e302c7d

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net.git/commit/?id=3cd3399dd7a84ada85cb839989cdf7310e302c7d


And the commit I will be working with to provide the fix is the stable backport 
to the 6.8.y stable kernel which is: d2fa3493811ecd49f1581940111ccf475fa5cd38
