[PATCH] work around for l2cap NULL dereference in l2cap_conn_start

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



bt_sk(sk)->parent can be NULL in l2cap_conn_start in state BT_CONNECT2
at least when a headset device pairs and the play button was pressed
right before pairing.

I removed the printk, can this be merged to the bluetooth next tree?
