Could you please tell, what exact compiler/linker version did you use?

Interesting!
I've just tried to boot it with qemu and it was fine.

qemu-system-x86_64 -smp 2,sockets=2,cores=1 -m 4G -drive
file=disk-f9ff5644.raw,format=raw -snapshot -nographic -enable-kvm

So it looks like it's some difference between these VMMs that causes
that bug to fire.

We can ask syzbot about v6.2-rc2:

#syz test git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git
88603b6dc419445847923fcb7fe5080067a30f98
