I don't want to spend the time and effort installing syskaller on my own system; I want to tell syzbot to run a particular syzkaller program (the one that originally led to this bug report) on a patched kernel. The syzbot instructions say that it can test bugs with reproducers. The problem here is that there doesn't seem to be any way to tell it to use a particular syzkaller program as a reproducer.
