Date: Sun Oct 30 2022 - 06:24:36 EST


Dear Linux Developer,

Recently when using our tool to fuzz kernel, the following crash was triggered:

HEAD commit: 64570fbc14f8 Linux 5.15-rc5
git tree: upstream
compiler: gcc 8.0.1
console output:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZxNXcUkiJiTK6MzVIWCqDpq70QW2-t-b/view?usp=share_link
kernel config: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1uDOeEYgJDcLiSOrx9W8v2bqZ6uOA_55t/view?usp=share_link

Unfortunately, I don't have any reproducer for this crash yet.

IMPORTANT: if you fix the bug, please add the following tag to the commit:
