Yes, I did, Dan. I tested it the usual way with the "#syz test:" command.
Obviously I have not the hardware to test code on it.

Therefore, the messages that say "Syzbot tested the patch and it didn't
trigger any issue" is all that I can know about the code being good or not.
This is the criterion I've always used before sending patches for Syzbot's
reports.

However, my knowledge of these subsystems and the API that are related to
this bug were very little, but now I can say that during the last couple of
days it has improved to the point where I can affirm that Wenchao's patch
seems to me to be the only correct solution.

Thanks for all the help you and the the other developers provided. It was
invaluable for a better understanding of this matter.

Regards,

Fabio M. De Francesco
