Hi Chan-yeol,

If h4_recv() return ERR_PTR instead sk_buff pointer, it should be
cleared once dereference is completed for the further reference such as
h4_recv(), or h4_close().

I have no idea what the h4_close has to do with it? Can you explain.
If h4->rx_skb has ERR_PTR , kfree_skb() would dereference of ERR_PTR. This is easily reproduced on my board when I turn off BT.

Isn't this better fixed in h4_recv_buf directly:
Yes it's better. I think if we use ERR_PTR this would be right.

This change seems totally unrelated.
Sorry, Unexpectedly this blank line is added.

				kfree_skb(skb);
				return ERR_PTR(-EILSEQ);

I would raise v2.

Thanks
