Why isn't it released? The fput() releases it:

static int hisi_acc_vf_release_file(struct inode *inode, struct file *filp)
{
	struct hisi_acc_vf_migration_file *migf = filp->private_data;

	hisi_acc_vf_disable_fd(migf);
	mutex_destroy(&migf->lock);
	kfree(migf);
        ^^^^^^^^^^

This patch looks wrong to me.
