There was an idea to do this automatically by syzbot:

dashboard/app: notify bug report about fix patches
https://github.com/google/syzkaller/issues/1574

Namely: if syzbot discovers a fix anywhere (by the hash), it could
send a notification email to the bug report email thread.
The downside is that the robot sends even more emails, so I am not
sure how it will be accepted. Any opinions?
