FWIW There are more report examples on the dashboard.
There are some that don't mention wireguard nor usbnet, e.g.:
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/text?tag=CrashReport&x=17dd2446280000
So that's probably red herring. But they all seem to mention alloc_netdev_mqs.
Let's do for now:
#syz set subsystems: net
