CVE-2024-58009

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

Bluetooth: L2CAP: handle NULL sock pointer in l2cap_sock_alloc

A NULL sock pointer is passed into l2cap_sock_alloc() when it is called
from l2cap_sock_new_connection_cb() and the error handling paths should
also be aware of it.

Seemingly a more elegant solution would be to swap bt_sock_alloc() and
l2cap_chan_create() calls since they are not interdependent to that moment
but then l2cap_chan_create() adds the soon to be deallocated and still
dummy-initialized channel to the global list accessible by many L2CAP
paths. The channel would be removed from the list in short period of time
but be a bit more straight-forward here and just check for NULL instead of
changing the order of function calls.
