I see you've sent 44 reports like this recently[1], but only have
reproducers for 4 of them[2].

Without reproducers these reports aren't very helpful. There
are hundreds like them (many with reproducers) already at:
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/upstream

Please only send these kind of reports if you have a fix for them
(preferred) or a reproducer for an actual problem. This has been mentioned
a few times already[3][4]; have you seen these replies?
