Oh, coverage page says that

        /* Set level of messages printed to console */
        case SYSLOG_ACTION_CONSOLE_LEVEL:
                if (len < 1 || len > 8) /*covered*/
                        return -EINVAL;
                if (len < minimum_console_loglevel) /*covered*/
                        len = minimum_console_loglevel;
                console_loglevel = len;
                /* Implicitly re-enable logging to console */
                saved_console_loglevel = LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT;
                break;

fuzzer was indeed testing SYSLOG_ACTION_CONSOLE_LEVEL case. ;-)
