An old syzkaller may not understand part of syscalls in the program
and silently drop them, you need a new one.

Here is a straightforward conversion of the syzkaller program to C
(with/without namespace sandbox):

https://gist.githubusercontent.com/dvyukov/b6540bed50b7da1dff3d7373ba570c77/raw/fd5f2f3aaa52b70b2bb9f114cf8a3226d8a30960/gistfile1.txt
https://gist.githubusercontent.com/dvyukov/dbd8ec38bcb50df4bdc95210d4247b09/raw/f9cbb5e17cd4ff4a7a7881c97dea7d6cd6dd8bf1/gistfile1.txt

That's also with -procs=10, you can change number of procs in main funciton.

But I wasn't able to reproduce the crash using these programs (neither
the syzkaller program), that's why I did not provide it all initially.
