Only because syzbot is being super dumb in how it does the bisection.  AFAICS,
in the example you linked to, buggy kernels reliably crashed 10 out of 10 times
with the original crash signature, "WARNING in cgroup_exit".  Then at some point
it tested some kernel without the bug and got a different crash just 1 in 10
times, "WARNING: ODEBUG bug in netdev_freemem".

The facts that the crash frequency was very different, and the crash signature
was different, should be taken as a very strong signal that it's not the bug
being bisected for.  And this is something easily checked for in code.

BTW, I hope you're treating fixing this as a high priority, given that syzbot is
now sending bug reports to kernel developers literally selected at random.  This
is a great way to teach people to ignore syzbot reports.  (When I suggested
bisection originally, I had assumed you'd implement some basic sanity checks so
that only bisection results likely to be reliable would be mailed out.)
