Looking into this now.

I have to say I'm very confused by the syzkaller report here.

If I go to

https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=283ce5a46486d6acdbaf

which is the original link in the report it shows me

android-54	KASAN: use-after-free Read in filp_close	C			2	183d	183d	0/1	upstream: reported C repro on 2021/01/11 12:38

which seems to indicate that this happened on an Android specific 5.4
kernel?

But ok, so I click on the link "upstream: reported C repro on 2021/01/11 12:38"
which takes me to a google group

https://groups.google.com/g/syzkaller-android-bugs/c/FQj0qcRSy_M/m/wrY70QFzBAAJ

which again strongly indicates that this is an Android specific kernel?

HEAD commit: c9951e5d Merge 5.4.88 into android12-5.4
git tree: android12-5.4

but then I can click on the dashboard link for that crash report and it
takes me to:

https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=53897bcb31b82c7a08fe

which seems to be the upstream report?

So I'm a bit confused whether I'm even looking at the correct bug report
but I'll just give the repro a try and see what's going on.
