Ran that with the attached test case, triggers it before but not with
the patch. Side note - I do wish that the syzbot reproducers were not
x86 specific, I always have to go and edit them for arm64. For this
particular one, I just gave up and wrote one myself.

Thanks for the heads-up Jan, I'll queue up this fix and mark for stable
with the right attributions.
