What's the point of testing it? You said it yourself, it hides the
problem under the carpet but doesn't solve it. Do some valid IO first,
then send that failed request. If done_io is aliased with with some
interesting field of a previously completed request you're royally
screwed, but syz would be just happy about it.

It's likely that syz is complaining about is the early fail case
I told about yesterday.
