Sorry, I have kind of hijacked the cip-dev email list... I use these
lists to figure out where we are failing.

I created a static checker warning for this bug. I also wrote a blog
stepping through the process:
https://staticthinking.wordpress.com/2023/03/07/triaging-security-bugs/

If anyone wants to review the warnings, just email me and I can send
them to you. I Cc'd LWN because I was going to post the warnings but I
chickened out because that didn't feel like responsible disclosure. The
instructions for how to find these yourself are kind of right there in
the blog so it's not too hard to generate these results yourself... I
don't really have enough time to review static checker warnings anymore
but I don't know who wants to do that job now.
