The WCN7851 (0489:e0f3) Bluetooth controller supports firmware crash dump
collection through devcoredump. During this process, the crash dump data
is queued to a dump queue as skb for further processing.
A NULL pointer dereference occurs in skb_dequeue() when processing the
dump queue due to improper return value handling:
[ 93.672166] Bluetooth: hci0: ACL memdump size(589824)
[ 93.672475] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000008
[ 93.672517] Workqueue: hci0 hci_devcd_rx [bluetooth]
[ 93.672598] RIP: 0010:skb_dequeue+0x50/0x80
The issue stems from handle_dump_pkt_qca() returning the wrong value on
success. It currently returns the value from hci_devcd_init() (0 on
success), but callers expect > 0 to indicate successful dump handling.
This causes hci_recv_frame() to free the skb while it's still queued for
dump processing, leading to the NULL pointer dereference when
hci_devcd_rx() tries to dequeue it.
Fix this by:
1. Extracting dump packet detection into new is_dump_pkt_qca() function
2. Making handle_dump_pkt_qca() return 0 on success and negative errno
on failure, consistent with other kernel interfaces
This prevents premature skb freeing by ensuring proper handling of
dump packets.
