Hi Hyunwoo,
I've been looking into a few CVEs, the one of interest in this case is
CVE-2024-21803.
There seems to be little publicly available information about this CVE,
however the title of this patch and the affected kernel range suggest
this may be a fix for this CVE.
Would you be able to clarify whether this is a fix for CVE-2024-21803?
Thanks,
Martyn

This can cause a race with bt_sock_ioctl() because
bt_sock_recvmsg() gets the skb from sk->sk_receive_queue
and then frees it without holding lock_sock.
A use-after-free for a skb occurs with the following flow.
```
bt_sock_recvmsg() -> skb_recv_datagram() -> skb_free_datagram()
bt_sock_ioctl() -> skb_peek()
```
Add lock_sock to bt_sock_recvmsg() to fix this issue.
