No leaks since the kernel upgrade.  However, I have stopped latest
updates of Network-Manager-Gnome at version 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu4.2 due to
the fact that the latest update made the memory leak so bad I could not
be up for more than a couple of hours without a reboot.

Being that I am unwilling to install the NMG update to see if the new
kernel fixes that as well, all I can say is that "on my system" Xorg is
releasing memory now ... even though it still uses a lot... but I have
been up for over two days without a reboot and am only using 38% of my
memory ... Xorg is still the biggest hog but at least it is now
bearable.  Note that I am a very heavy user so the system is run hard...
so far so good.

If you can revert back to NMG 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu4.2, you can prevent an
update by both system updates and system upgrades by adding these line
to the "/etc/apt/preferences" file (if it does not exist, create it):

Package: network-manager-gnome
Pin: version 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu4.2
Pin-Priority: -1

Package: libnm-gtk-common
Pin: version 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu4.2
Pin-Priority: -1

Package: libnm-gtk0
Pin: version 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu4.2
Pin-Priority: -1

Use Timeshift <https://launchpad.net/%7Eteejee2008/+archive/ubuntu/ppa>
to back up your setup and try the kernel update.  With the above config
my system is doing OK now.

Good luck!
