This is the kind of bug that could cause a crash if the path actually
executes.

Therefore it tires me that that submitter was told to regenerate this
patch against some devel tree that is -next bound, when in fact this
is the kind of fix that warrants inclusion right now into net-2.6

Marcel, please do whatever magic you need to so I can get this into
Linus's tree as I did the rest of the ERR_PTR() fixes from Dan already.
No reason to treat Bluetooth special and defer these fixes to -next.

Thanks.
