Yes, it's strange. But I can reproduce it. There must be something
different in our setups.
Here is how to build exact same kernel:
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/syzkaller-bugs/_oveOKGm3jw/vc1tXvsbCgAJ

Here is how I start qemu:

qemu-system-x86_64 -hda wheezy.img -net
user,host=10.0.2.10,hostfwd=tcp::10022-:22 -net nic -nographic -kernel
arch/x86/boot/bzImage -append "kvm-intel.nested=1
kvm-intel.unrestricted_guest=1 kvm-intel.ept=1
kvm-intel.flexpriority=1 kvm-intel.vpid=1
kvm-intel.emulate_invalid_guest_state=1 kvm-intel.eptad=1
kvm-intel.enable_shadow_vmcs=1 kvm-intel.pml=1
kvm-intel.enable_apicv=1 console=ttyS0 root=/dev/sda
earlyprintk=serial slub_debug=UZ vsyscall=native rodata=n oops=panic
panic_on_warn=1 panic=86400" -enable-kvm -pidfile vm_pid -m 2G -smp 4
-cpu host -usb -usbdevice mouse -usbdevice tablet -soundhw all

The image is here:
https://github.com/google/syzkaller/blob/master/docs/syzbot.md#crash-does-not-reproduce

Host cpu is Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2690 v3
