That is correct.
I am very thankful for syzbot with helping me catch bugs during development
and I would gladly attribute the bot and its owners, but I don't that
Reported-and-tested-by is an adequate tag for a bug that never existed as
far as git history.

Even Tested-by: syzbot could be misleading to stable kernel bots
that may conclude that the patch is a fix that needs to apply to stable.

I am open to suggestions.

Also maybe

#syz correction:

To tell syzbot we are not fixing a bug in upstream, but in a previous
version of a patch that it had tested.

No, that added ovl_get_index_name() seems like a fluke of the range-diff tool.
All the revisions of this patch always had this same minor change in this line:

-               err = ovl_get_index_name(ofs, c->lowerpath.dentry,
&c->destname);
+               err = ovl_get_index_name(ofs, origin, &c->destname);

The fix is obviously in the other part of the range-diff.

Thanks,
Amir.
