Bluetooth: hci_devcd_dump: fix out-of-bounds via dev_coredumpv
Currently both dev_coredumpv and skb_put_data in hci_devcd_dump use
hdev->dump.head. However, dev_coredumpv can free the buffer. From
dev_coredumpm_timeout documentation, which is used by dev_coredumpv:
> Creates a new device coredump for the given device. If a previous one hasn't
> been read yet, the new coredump is discarded. The data lifetime is determined
> by the device coredump framework and when it is no longer needed the @free
> function will be called to free the data.
If the data has not been read by the userspace yet, dev_coredumpv will
discard new buffer, freeing hdev->dump.head. This leads to
vmalloc-out-of-bounds error when skb_put_data tries to access
hdev->dump.head.
A crash report from syzbot illustrates this:
