Subject: [PATCH] Bluetooth: hci_uart: Check if socket buffer is ERR_PTR in
 h4_recv_buf()

h4_recv_buf() callers store the return value to socket buffer and
recursively pass the buffer to h4_recv_buf() without protection. So,
ERR_PTR returned from h4_recv_buf() can be dereferenced, if called again
before setting the socket buffer to NULL from previous error. Check if
skb is ERR_PTR in h4_recv_buf().
