Subject: [PATCH v3] Bluetooth: fix null ptr deref on hci_sync_conn_complete_evt

This event is just specified for SCO and eSCO link types.
On the reception of a HCI_Synchronous_Connection_Complete for a BDADDR
of an existing LE connection, LE link type and a status that triggers the
second case of the packet processing a NULL pointer dereference happens,
as conn->link is NULL.

v3: Replace if with switch, reference spec

I found this null pointer dereference while fuzzing bluetooth-next.
On the described behaviour, a null ptr deref in line 4723 happens, as
conn->link is NULL. According to the Core spec, Link_Type must be SCO or eSCO,
all other values are reserved for future use. Checking that mitigates a null
pointer dereference.
