This seem an unlikely candidate given...

The trace is more related to perf.

Given the random nature of the test that triggered this, it seems more
plausible that this came from the perf-core-for-linus branch, and when
git-bisect ran on that branch, it marked it good because it didn't run
the fuzzer for long enough.
