[PATCH] Bluetooth: skip invalid hci_sync_conn_complete_evt

[PATCH] Bluetooth: skip invalid hci_sync_conn_complete_evt

[Desmond Cheong Zhi Xi]

Syzbot reported a corrupted list in kobject_add_internal [1]. This
happens when multiple HCI_EV_SYNC_CONN_COMPLETE event packets with
status 0 are sent for the same HCI connection. This causes us to
register the device more than once which corrupts the kset list.

To fix this, in hci_sync_conn_complete_evt, we check whether we're
trying to process the same HCI_EV_SYNC_CONN_COMPLETE event multiple
times for one connection. If that's the case, the event is invalid, so
we skip further processing and exit.

and that is actually forbidden by the spec. So we need to complain loudly that such a device is misbehaving.

The comment has go above and be a lot more details since this is not expected behavior from valid hardware and we should add a bt_dev_err as well.

Hi Marcel,

Apologies for the delayed response.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll add more elaboration for the new check and 
add a bt_dev_err in a v2 patch.
