If it was reported, I either missed it or forgot about it, sorry.
Can you (re)share the context?
There was a couple of mem leak fixes for mlx5 in v23.07.
It may be worth running this test again and providing fresh traces.

Or disabling the driver as Bruce proposes.

Patching sources from the test tool is a poor solution.
In general, developers won't be aware of source patching and will
waste time trying to understand why they can't reproduce what the CI
reports (it happened to me with DTS on the interrupt stuff with vhost,
at least).
For this specific case of skipping a test, if nobody can fix the
issue, I prefer if the CI can skip some "known broken in my lab" tests
via some meson configuration.
And, such configuration should be easy to catch in the test report.
