Research direction
Open src/nvidia/src/kernel/mem_mgr/system_mem.c at lines 553-556 and inspect the repeated assignment to pAllocRequest->pHwResource->hwResId. Remove the copy-paste duplication, then verify the file still builds cleanly; done means the assignment appears only once at that location.
