OK, let's stick with this theory for now. Looking at the crash frequencies here:
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=2503c576cabb08d41812e732b390141f01a59545
I can actually believe that this is just flakes due to too slow execution.

I've noted that we need either reduce load and/or increase timeouts:
https://github.com/google/syzkaller/issues/516#issuecomment-395685629

Let's keep duping new such reports onto "INFO: task hung in
netdev_run_todo" so that they are all collected at a single location.

Thanks for help
