Yeah I agree, as per my email. I think we're better off just doing the
EARLY_FAIL in general, and forget about the specific case. I just wanted
to make sure I wasn't off in the weeds, since I can't trigger this.
Could probably write a specific test case for it, but the syzbot
reproducer didn't for me.
