Looks like the stable tag was removed when this one was applied, and
similar for patches 2, 4 and 7 of this series (commits 3111491fca4f,
a8eeb74df5a6, 6b32391ed675 upstream).
While the last three are mostly an issue for the syzbot fuzzer, we have
started backporting those as well.
This one (bcfcb7f9b480) is more clear cut as it can be used to trigger a
NULL-deref.
I only noticed because Sasha picked up one of the other patches in the
series which was never intended for stable.
