[ Upstream commit bf2ffc4d14db29cab781549912d2dc69127f4d3e ]

Modify the driver to post 3 fewer buffers than the maximum rx buffers
(64) allowed for the firmware. This change mitigates a hardware issue
causing a race condition in the firmware, improving stability and data
handling.

[ Upstream commit 2dd711102ce69ae41f65d09c012441227d4aa983 ]

This change addresses latency issues observed in HID use cases where
events arrive in bursts. By increasing the Rx descriptor count to 64,
the firmware can handle bursty data more effectively, reducing latency
and preventing buffer overflows.

[ Upstream commit daabd276985055250528da97e9ce6d277d7009c2 ]

The driver was posting only 6 rx buffers, despite the maximum rx buffers
being defined as 16. Having fewer RX buffers caused firmware exceptions
in HID use cases when events arrived in bursts.

Exception seen on android 6.12 kernel.

<title>Bluetooth: btintel: Check dsbr size from EFI variable</title>

[ Upstream commit 3aa1dc3c9060e335e82e9c182bf3d1db29220b1b ]

Since the size of struct btintel_dsbr is already known, we can just
start there instead of querying the EFI variable size. If the final
result doesn't match what we expect also fail. This fixes a stack buffer
overflow when the EFI variable is larger than struct btintel_dsbr.

commit 0fb410c914eb03c7e9d821e26d03bac0a239e5db upstream.

Commit 3d05fc82237a ("Bluetooth: qca: set power_ctrl_enabled on NULL
returned by gpiod_get_optional()") accidentally changed the prevous
behavior where power control would be disabled without the BT_EN GPIO
only on QCA_WCN6750 and QCA_WCN6855 while also getting the error check
wrong. We should treat every IS_ERR() return value from
devm_gpiod_get_optional() as a reason to bail-out while we should only
set power_ctrl_enabled to false on the two models mentioned above. While
at it: use dev_err_probe() to save a LOC.

This avoids direct pointer math on skb-&gt;data, which could lead to

Due to a hardware issue, there is a possibility that the driver may miss
an MSIx interrupt on the RX/TX data path. Since the TX and RX paths are
independent, when a TX MSIx interrupt occurs, the driver can check the
RX queue for any pending data and process it if present. The same
approach applies to the RX path.

A NULL pointer dereference can occur in skb_dequeue() when processing a
QCA firmware crash dump on WCN7851 (0489:e0f3).

[ 93.672166] Bluetooth: hci0: ACL memdump size(589824)

[ 93.672475] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000008
[ 93.672517] Workqueue: hci0 hci_devcd_rx [bluetooth]
[ 93.672598] RIP: 0010:skb_dequeue+0x50/0x80

The issue stems from handle_dump_pkt_qca() returning 0 even when a dump
packet is successfully processed. This is because it incorrectly
forwards the return value of hci_devcd_init() (which returns 0 on
success). As a result, the caller (btusb_recv_acl_qca() or
btusb_recv_evt_qca()) assumes the packet was not handled and passes it
to hci_recv_frame(), leading to premature kfree() of the skb.

Later, hci_devcd_rx() attempts to dequeue the same skb from the dump
queue, resulting in a NULL pointer dereference.

Fix this by:
1. Making handle_dump_pkt_qca() return 0 on success and negative errno
   on failure, consistent with kernel conventions.
2. Splitting dump packet detection into separate functions for ACL
   and event packets for better structure and readability.

This ensures dump packets are properly identified and consumed, avoiding
double handling and preventing NULL pointer access.
