[PATCH] Bluetooth: hci_ldisc: check HCI_UART_PROTO_READY flag in HCIUARTGETPROTO

From: Lee, Chun-Yi
Date: Mon Jul 10 2023 - 11:17:39 EST


This patch adds code to check HCI_UART_PROTO_READY flag before
accessing hci_uart->proto. It fixs the race condition in
hci_uart_tty_ioctl() between HCIUARTSETPROTO and HCIUARTGETPROTO.
This issue bug found by Yu Hao and Weiteng Chen:

BUG: general protection fault in hci_uart_tty_ioctl [1]

The information of C reproducer can also reference the link [2]
