I tried to reproduce it on my test setup and then qemu running the syz image
but haven't been successful yet. The bug definitely seems plausible but I
haven't been able to spot anything obvious looking at the code yet either.
I'm a bit out of ideas right now. Will keep thinking about it and come back
to it later.

Thanks.
