Subject: Re: [PATCH v2] Bluetooth: Collect kcov coverage from hci_rx_work

(Resending the reply I sent to the v1 of the patch. I sent it by
mistake with HTML content, so it did not reach lore.)

I checked out v5.18.1, applied this patch and fuzzed it with syzkaller
for a day. The fuzzer was indeed able to find and report more coverage
of the BT subsystem than without the patch.
