Although the problem patch itself won't exist any more so ... ? I am a bit lost. There should be some patch that will fix this (new or amended). Either that patch needs to include Reporter/Tested-by tag, or we will need to tell syzbot about the fix manually with the "#syz fix:" command. > OTOH, if I repost the series I think I can send them to syzbot for testing > before forwarding to Andrew (I've done something like that before but can't > remember how now) and add the attribution to the series. > > But this all depends on what is best for Andrew and what Al would like to > see done.
