Hello. I found a corrupted report at https://syzkaller.appspot.com/text?tag=CrashLog&x=17c6b82b200000 .
The panic() was caused by by WARN_ON() from generic_make_request_checks(), but there was no printk() messages from WARN_ON(). Moreover, there was no printk() messages for (at least) nearly one minute despite syzbot's testing likely generates constant printk() messages. Unfortunately, since the report was truncated due to size limit, we can't check when was the last time prink() succeeded writing messages to consoles. ---------- 14:27:02 executing program 1: (...snipped...) 14:28:00 executing program 3: (...snipped...)
