With CONFIG_PARAVIRT=y (without the notrace->noinstr patch), I still
get lockdep DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(!lockdep_hardirqs_enabled()), although
it takes longer for syzbot to hit them. But I think that's expected
because we can still get the recursion that I pointed out, and will
need that patch.

I also get some "BUG: MAX_LOCKDEP_CHAINS too low!" on syzbot (KCSAN is
not in the stacktrace). Although it may be unrelated:

-- when are they expected?
