I'm not sure how it supposed to help since it doesn't change the
alloclen at all.

alloclen is a function of fraglen and fraglen is a function of datalen.

Ok, but in this case it doesn't affect the alloclen and it still fails.

This is some kind of non-standard packet that is being constructed. Do
we understand how it is different?

The .syz reproducer is generally a bit more readable than the .c
equivalent. Though not as much as an strace of the binary, if you
can share that.

r0 = socket$inet6_icmp_raw(0xa, 0x3, 0x3a)
connect$inet6(r0, &(0x7f0000000040)={0xa, 0x0, 0x0, @dev, 0x6}, 0x1c)
setsockopt$inet6_IPV6_HOPOPTS(r0, 0x29, 0x36,
&(0x7f0000000100)=ANY=[@ANYBLOB="52b3"], 0x5a0)
sendmmsg$inet(r0, &(0x7f00000002c0)=[{{0x0, 0x0,
&(0x7f0000000000)=[{&(0x7f00000000c0)="1d2d", 0xfa5f}], 0x1}}], 0x1,
0xfe80)

Here it is:

It won't be of much help, I'm afraid, as the offending sendmmsg()
call isn't fully printed.
