(Is there an email address for the syzbot operators?)

sysbot does test linux-next, yet these patches sat in linux-next for a
month without a peep, but all hell broke loose when they hit Linus's
tree.  How could this have happened?

Possibly I've been carrying a later patch which fixed all this up, but
I'm not seeing anything like that.  Nothing at all against mm/gup.c.
