I don't know what is going on with syzkaller's commit detection, but
commit 1e1c2b86ef86 ("ext4: block range must be validated before use
in ext4_mb_clear_bb()") is an exact match for the commit title, and
it's been in the upstream kernel since v6.0.

How do we make syzkaller accept this?  I'll try this again, but I
don't hold out much hope.

#syz fix: ext4: block range must be validated before use in ext4_mb_clear_bb()

Syzkaller, go home, you're drunk.
