Hi Jens,

This somehow fell through the cracks, but better late than never.

We could set up a syzbot instance for the io-uring tree.
It won't solve the problem directly, but if the branch contains both
new development ("for-next") and fixes, it will have good chances of
discovering issues before they reach mainline and spread to other
trees.
Do you think it's a good idea? Is there a branch that contains new
development and fixes?
