It was; the "Syzakller reproducer" above is the reproducer I used with
syz-repro.

I've manually minimized that to C below. AFAICT, that hits a leak, which
is what's triggering the OOM after the program is run a number of times
with the previously posted kvmalloc patch.

Per /proc/meminfo, that memory isn't accounted anywhere.

Sure.

As above, it looks like there's a leak, regardless.

Thanks,
