I got into the mood to take another look at these implementation details.
I suggest then to look at the commit 0d352a3a8a1f26168d09f7073e61bb4b328e3bb9
("drm/v3d: don't leak bin job if v3d_job_init fails." from 2019-09-18)
once more.

With which software versions did you perform your source code analysis?
