This doesn't make much sense, unless it's a "generic" memory corruption,
but at least the reproducer seems to be simple, just (in pseudocode)

ioctl(kvm_vm_fd, KVM_HYPERV_EVENTFD,
{ fd = some_eventfd, conn_id = 0, flags = 0 })
ioctl(kvm_vm_fd, KVM_HYPERV_EVENTFD,
{ fd = -1, conn_id = 5, flags = KVM_HYPERV_EVENTFD_DEASSIGN })

Roman, Cathy, can you give it a quick look? (Reproducing the reproducer

Yeah, most likely.

This makes much sense if this is use-after-free memory access which was
manifested differently due to reallocated after released.

mutex_lock(&hv->hv_lock);
eventfd = idr_remove(&hv->conn_to_evt, conn_id); // <= Memory block containing hv->hv_lock was released by other thread and reallocated by other thread.
mutex_unlock(&hv->hv_lock); // <= Hence, __owner_task(owner) != current at this point.

Yes, but hv is part of the "struct kvm" and it should only be freed
after kvm_vm_fd (in the above pseudocode) is gone, so after both ioctls
are finished. Unlike other syzkaller testcases this one doesn't really
require parallelism.
