3.16.74-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Loic Poulain <loic.poulain@xxxxxxxxx> commit 84cb3df02aea4b00405521e67c4c67c2d525c364 upstream. HCI_UART_PROTO_SET flag is set before hci_uart_set_proto call. If we receive data from tty layer during this procedure, proto pointer may not be assigned yet, leading to null pointer dereference in rx method hci_uart_tty_receive. This patch fixes this issue by introducing HCI_UART_PROTO_READY flag in order to avoid any proto operation before proto opening and assignment.
