I had a go at reproducing this on an arm64 board following [1], but so
far I've had no luck. I've dumped the above into syz-kvm-bug, and I'm
trying to reproduce the issue with:

	PATH=$PATH:$(pwd)/bin syz-execprog \
		-executor $(pwd)/bin/syz-executor \
		-cover=0 -repeat=0 -procs 16 \
		syz-kvm-bug

Just to check, is that the correct way to reproduce the problem with the
above log?

How quickly does that reproduce the problem for you?

Thanks,
Mark.
