You can ask syzbot to test by replying to its report email with a test
command, see:
https://github.com/google/syzkaller/blob/master/docs/syzbot.md#communication-with-syzbot

Note that all testing of KMSAN bugs needs to go to KMSAN tree, for details see:
https://github.com/google/syzkaller/blob/master/docs/syzbot.md#kmsan-bugs
