Sample crash report:
======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected

------------------------------------------------------
syz-executor.0/6771 is trying to acquire lock:

but task is already holding lock:

other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:
  &pipe->mutex/1 --> &ovl_i_mutex_dir_key[depth] --> sb_writers#5

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(sb_writers#5);
