I bisected the difference between the config we use on syzbot and the
simple one that was generated like I described above.
Turns out that it's the DEBUG_VIRTUAL config that makes the difference.

make defconfig ARCH=riscv CROSS_COMPILE=riscv64-linux-gnu-
./scripts/config -e KASAN -e KASAN_OUTLINE -e DEBUG_VIRTUAL
make olddefconfig ARCH=riscv CROSS_COMPILE=riscv64-linux-gnu-

And the resulting kernel does not boot.
My env: the `riscv/fixes` branch, commit
6df2a016c0c8a3d0933ef33dd192ea6606b115e3, qemu 6.2.0.
