This report is expected for now, since the repro involves writing to the page
cache of a mounted block device.  For more information see
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/20230813001202.GE41642@sol.localdomain and
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/20230814182903.37267-2-ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx.
Also https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/20230704122727.17096-1-jack@xxxxxxx
which will ultimately be the fix for this class of issue.

Note: the repro that syzkaller generated for this is very strange (even moreso
than usual for syzkaller repros...) because it replaces its "scratch space" at
address 0x20000000 with a different mapping, specifically a mapping for a file
that is mounted as a filesystem via loopback.  That makes "syscalls" have weird
side effects as a result of the repro writing parameters to the address that is
supposed to contain its scratch space.  I don't think this should be happening,
so I've opened https://github.com/google/syzkaller/issues/4216 for it.
