Sorry, I think I got that wrong; the syzbot manual
(https://github.com/google/syzkaller/blob/master/docs/syzbot.md#rebuilt-treesamended-patches)
instead suggests:

"First, adding Reported-by tags to amended commits may be misleading.
A Reported-by tag suggests that the commit fixes a bug in some
previous commit, but here it's not the case (it only fixes a bug in a
previous version of itself which is not in the tree). In such case
it's recommended to include a Tested-by or a Reviewed-by tag with the
hash instead. Technically, syzbot accepts any tag, so With-inputs-from
would work too."

Ah, bleh, of course. I haven't used range-diff in a while and misread
the output...
