The usual tag for someone that found a bug in an earlier version of a
patch would be Reviewed-by:. Is there any reason we can't use that
here? The "syzbot+..." email should be enough on its own, I can't see a
reason why their scripts would need to require a particular tag. Or
maybe we could use Tested-by:, or some other tag made up for this case?
I do worry that someone who sees "Reported-by:..." might for example
mistakenly assume that it would help to backport that patch if they see
a similar-looking oops.
