From: Hans de Goede <hdego...@redhat.com> commit 5c3b5796866f85354a5ce76a28f8ffba0dcefc7e upstream.
There have been multiple revisions of the patch fix the h5->rx_skb leak. Accidentally the first revision (which is buggy) and v5 have both been merged: v1 commit 70f259a3f427 ("Bluetooth: hci_h5: close serdev device and free hu in h5_close"); v5 commit 855af2d74c87 ("Bluetooth: hci_h5: fix memory leak in h5_close") The correct v5 makes changes slightly higher up in the h5_close() function, which allowed both versions to get merged without conflict. The changes from v1 unconditionally frees the h5 data struct, this is wrong because in the serdev enumeration case the memory is allocated in h5_serdev_probe() like this: h5 = devm_kzalloc(dev, sizeof(*h5), GFP_KERNEL); So its lifetime is tied to the lifetime of the driver being bound to the serdev and it is automatically freed when the driver gets unbound. In the serdev case the same h5 struct is re-used over h5_close() and h5_open() calls and thus MUST not be free-ed in h5_close(). The serdev_device_close() added to h5_close() is incorrect in the same way, serdev_device_close() is called on driver unbound too and also MUST no be called from h5_close(). This reverts the changes made by merging v1 of the patch, so that just the changes of the correct v5 remain.
