Hi Roderick,

I was wondering if you had a chance to look into this?

Once the Logitech fix is upstream, this similar Sony bug will start
producing a large number of similar syzbot reports since it causes a
major memory corruption and we'll need to triage them all again. It
would be nice to get the Sony fix merged together with the Logitech
one. Or at least to have it available so I can apply it manually until
it is merged.

Thanks!
