Hi Mark,

You assume that you have KASAN enabled.

Since a few unintended line breaks were added in the email, here's the
program in plaintext:
https://gist.githubusercontent.com/xairy/69864355b5a64f74e7cb445b7325a7df/raw/bdbbbf177dbea13eac0a5ddfa9c3e6c32695b13b/kvm-arm-uaf-log

I run it as:
# ./syz-execprog -repeat=0 -collide=false -sandbox=namespace ./kvm-arm-uaf-log

And it takes less than a second to trigger the bug.

Thanks!
