What is not clear is what you are fixing, with CVE-2022-1882 put aside, given the mainline tree survived the syzbot test [1] irrespective of other fixing efforts [2, 3]. Hillf [1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/000000000000c7a83905e52bd127@xxxxxxxxxx/ syzbot has tested the proposed patch and the reproducer did not trigger any issue: Reported-and-tested-by: syzbot+c70d87ac1d001f29a058@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Tested on: commit: 3d7cb6b0 Linux 5.19 git tree: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master console output: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/x/log.txt?x=14066d7a080000 kernel config: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/x/.config?x=70dd99d568a89e0 dashboard link: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=c70d87ac1d001f29a058 compiler: gcc (Debian 10.2.1-6) 10.2.1 20210110, GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.35.2 Note: no patches were applied.
