The reproducer triggers:
1016                 if (error) {
1017                         list_move_tail(&walk->walk.all, &x->all);
1018                         goto out;
1019                 }

in xfrm_policy_walk() via pfkey (it sets tiny rcv space, dump
callback returns -ENOBUFS).

In this case, *walk is located the pfkey socket struct, so this socket
becomes visible in the global policy list.

It looks like this is intentional -- phony walker has walk.dead set to 1
and all other places skip such "policies".

Ccing original authors of the two commits that seem to expose this
issue (first patch missed ->dead check, second patch adds pfkey
sockets to policies dumper list).

Fixes: 880a6fab8f6ba5b ("xfrm: configure policy hash table thresholds by netlink")
Fixes: 12a169e7d8f4b1c ("ipsec: Put dumpers on the dump list")

Applied, thanks a lot!

This crash seems to have stopped occurring, thanks Florian!  Let's tell syzbot
so that it can start reporting any crashes in this same place again:

#syz fix: xfrm: skip policies marked as dead while rehashing
