There was no stack corruption. It looks like the syzbot were bisecting a different bug - "kernel panic: Out of memory and no killable processes..." And bisection for that bug seems to be correct. kvmalloc() in vmemdup_user() may eat up all memory unlike kmalloc which is limited by KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE (4MB usually).
