I have this from the syzcaller logs:

mmap(&(0x7f0000001000/0x2000)=nil, 0x2000, 0xfffffe, 0x12, r8, 0x0)
getsockopt$XDP_MMAP_OFFSETS(r8, 0x11b, 0x7, &(0x7f0000001300),
&(0x7f0000000100)=0x60)

The full log can be found at:
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/x/repro.syz?x=119d9fb1e00000

Hope this helps.
