Hi,

Yes, any of these prefixes will work (not be considered as a kernel
issue). syzkaller only matches "WARNING:" verbatim. I don't know about
all other kernel testing systems, but at least it's distinguishable.

Maybe also worth adding "bfs:" prefix for cases when people stare at
dmesg afterwards.
