[PATCH 0/1] MR885: win32u: Use allocator mechanism to allocate DC attributes

[David Kahurani (＠kahurani)]

DC attributes are not deallocated when free_dc_attr is called on them but are instead queued for reassignment. If we don't make use of the designated allocator to allocate DC attributes, we essentially keep adding memory to the queue indefinitely and, at the same time, not allowing room for reassignment.

The above essentially leads to a leak which is quite noticeable in applications making use heavy use of gdiplus.
