v4.14-rc3/arm64 DABT exception in atomic_inc() / __skb_clone()

Sadly, the syzkaller characterized it as a non-reproducible bug and there were empty
 repro files. But if manually executing in VM like this “./syz-execprog -executor=
./syz-executor -repeat=0 -procs=16 -cover=0 crash-log”, it crashed when executing exactly 
program 1056 using log0 provided.

I failed to generate the C reproducer with syz-repro as it said “no target compiler”
in the final step. I would appreciate if you could give some hints.

Thanks,
Wei
