Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: nfcmrvl: Fix potential memory leak in nfcmrvl_i2c_nci_send()
nfcmrvl_i2c_nci_send() will be called by nfcmrvl_nci_send(), and skb
should be freed in nfcmrvl_i2c_nci_send(). However, nfcmrvl_nci_send()
will only free skb when i2c_master_send() return >=0, which means skb
will memleak when i2c_master_send() failed. Free skb no matter whether
i2c_master_send() succeeds.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: nxp-nci: Fix potential memory leak in nxp_nci_send()
nxp_nci_send() will call nxp_nci_i2c_write(), and only free skb when
nxp_nci_i2c_write() failed. However, even if the nxp_nci_i2c_write()
run succeeds, the skb will not be freed in nxp_nci_i2c_write(). As the
result, the skb will memleak. nxp_nci_send() should also free the skb
when nxp_nci_i2c_write() succeeds.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: L2CAP: fix use-after-free in l2cap_conn_del()
When l2cap_recv_frame() is invoked to receive data, and the cid is
L2CAP_CID_A2MP, if the channel does not exist, it will create a channel.
However, after a channel is created, the hold operation of the channel
is not performed. In this case, the value of channel reference counting
is 1. As a result, after hci_error_reset() is triggered, l2cap_conn_del()
invokes the close hook function of A2MP to release the channel. Then
l2cap_chan_unlock(chan) will trigger UAF issue.
The process is as follows:
Receive data:
l2cap_data_channel()
a2mp_channel_create() --->channel ref is 2
l2cap_chan_put() --->channel ref is 1
Triger event:
hci_error_reset()
hci_dev_do_close()
...
l2cap_disconn_cfm()
l2cap_conn_del()
l2cap_chan_hold() --->channel ref is 2
l2cap_chan_del() --->channel ref is 1
a2mp_chan_close_cb() --->channel ref is 0, release channel
l2cap_chan_unlock() --->UAF of channel

Afer commit 1fa5ae857bb1 ("driver core: get rid of struct device's

add put_device() to give up the reference, so that the name can be
freed in kobject_cleanup() when the refcount is 0.
Set device class before put_device() to avoid null release() function

It triggers NULL pointer dereference when 'neigh->dev->dev_addr' is
called in the rose_send_frame(). It's the first occurrence of the
`neigh` is in rose_loopback_timer() as `rose_loopback_neigh', and
the 'dev' in 'rose_loopback_neigh' is initialized sa nullptr.
It had been fixed by commit 3b3fd068c56e3fbea30090859216a368398e39bf
("rose: Fix Null pointer dereference in rose_send_frame()") ever.
But it's introduced by commit 3c53cd65dece47dd1f9d3a809f32e59d1d87b2b8
("rose: check NULL rose_loopback_neigh->loopback") again.
We fix it by add NULL check in rose_transmit_clear_request(). When
the 'dev' in 'neigh' is NULL, we don't reply the request and just
clear it.

It is because the memory allocated in wbt_enable_default() is not
released in device_add_disk() error path.
Normally, these memory are freed in:
del_gendisk()
rq_qos_exit()
rqos->ops->exit(rqos);
wbt_exit()
So rq_qos_exit() is called to free the rq_wb memory for wbt_init().
However in the error path of device_add_disk(), only
blk_unregister_queue() is called and make rq_wb memory leaked.
Add rq_qos_exit() to the error path to fix it.

====================================
HCI core will uses hci_rx_work() to process frame, which is queued to
the hdev->rx_q tail in hci_recv_frame() by HCI driver.
Yet the problem is that, HCI core may not free the skb after handling
ACL data packets. To be more specific, when start fragment does not
contain the L2CAP length, HCI core just copies skb into conn->rx_skb and
finishes frame process in l2cap_recv_acldata(), without freeing the skb,
which triggers the above memory leak.
This patch solves it by releasing the relative skb, after processing
the above case in l2cap_recv_acldata().
