The bug that this reproducer reproduces was fixed a while ago by commit
966031f340185e, so I'm marking this bug report fixed by it:

#syz fix: n_tty: fix EXTPROC vs ICANON interaction with TIOCINQ (aka FIONREAD)

Note that the error message was not always "BUG: workqueue lockup"; it was also
sometimes like "watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#5 stuck for 22s!".

syzbot still is hitting the "BUG: workqueue lockup" error sometimes, but it must
be for other reasons.  None has a reproducer currently.
