Because syzbot found a C reproducer on 2018/07/09 02:29 UTC, and your fix was
not in time for a kernel version syzbot was testing, and you were not listed
as a recipient of this bug, and I didn't know you already fixed this bug.

Anyway, linux-next-20180709 still does not have this fix.
What is the title of your fix you pushed on Saturday?
