Thanks,

Force pushed fixed commit 660585b56e63 ("fuse: wait for writepages in
syncfs") to fuse.git#for-next.

This is fixed as far as I'm concerned, not sure how to tell that to syzbot.

Thanks -- we can let syzbot know:

#syz fix: fuse: wait for writepages in syncfs

(The syntax is just "#syz fix: <commit title>".)

Yeah, but that patch has several versions, one of which is broken.
Syzbot can't tell the difference just based on the title.

True, and a general problem with trying to track -next, where even
commit hashes might change. For -next, we can probably live with just
marking the problem fixed, meaning anyone checking the issue will see
a fix exists (and not invest time in trying to fix it).

If the problem persists, syzbot will just keep complaining. ;-)
