syzbot started utilizing this patch in linux-next.git. And surprisingly,
almost all reports which were previously treated as "corrupted report" are
now appropriately reported. I can hardly wait for arrival at linux.git.
Even if we revert from linux.git at 5.0-rc7, having this patch temporarily
available until 5.0-rc7 in linux.git would be so helpful. ;-)
