[ Upstream commit 92fe24a7db751b80925214ede43f8d2be792ea7b ] Syzbot reported a corrupted list in kobject_add_internal [1]. This happens when multiple HCI_EV_SYNC_CONN_COMPLETE event packets with status 0 are sent for the same HCI connection. This causes us to register the device more than once which corrupts the kset list. As this is forbidden behavior, we add a check for whether we're trying to process the same HCI_EV_SYNC_CONN_COMPLETE event multiple times for one connection. If that's the case, the event is invalid, so we report an error that the device is misbehaving, and ignore the packet.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
