We have _all_ types of bugs reported in _all_ subsystems. So you need
to be more precise :)

You can see all currently open bugs here:
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/#upstream

And here you can search over reports:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/syzkaller-bugs

E.g.:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/syzkaller-bugs/refcount_inc_not_zero_checked

We had this recently, which is task_struct refcount bug:
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=e1854417677586ce3d00f498f19816cb4fd15676
but this seems to be related to rdma. And repro for this bug only
deals with kvm. So my guess would be that this is a different bug in
kvm.
If you can reproduce it, then perhaps logging all refcount operation
on the thing will help to find whoever releases a ref it does not own.
