Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Bluetooth: btrtl: fix out of bounds memory access

The problem is detected by KASAN. btrtl driver uses private hci data to store 'struct btrealtek_data'. If btrtl driver is used with btusb, then memory for private hci data is allocated in btusb. But no private data is allocated after hci_dev, when btrtl is used with hci_h5.

This commit adds memory allocation for hci_h5 case.
