commit 609c5b04a28dc1b0f3af6a7bc93055135b2d2059 upstream.

rtlbt_parse_firmware() copies patch_length - 4 bytes before appending the
firmware version. A malformed firmware patch shorter than the version field
can make this subtraction underflow and turn the copy into an oversized
read and write during Bluetooth setup.

The existing patch_offset + patch_length check can also wrap on 32-bit
architectures. Validate the patch length and range without arithmetic
overflow before allocating or copying the patch.

[ Upstream commit cd8dbd9ef600435439bb0e70af0a1d9e2193aecb ]

For chips with security enabled, it's only possible to load firmware
with a valid signature pattern.
If key_id is not zero, it indicates a security chip, and the driver will
not load the config file.

- Example log for a security chip.

[ Upstream commit 324dddea321078a6eeb535c2bff5257be74c9799 ]

The btrtl_initialize() function checks that rtl_load_file() either
had an error or it loaded a zero length file.  However, if it loaded
a zero length file then the error code is not set correctly.  It
results in an error pointer vs NULL bug, followed by a NULL pointer
dereference.  This was detected by Smatch:

asm/unaligned.h is always an include of asm-generic/unaligned.h;
might as well move that thing to linux/unaligned.h and include
that - there's nothing arch-specific in that header.

<content type='text'>
For tracking multiple devices concurrently with a condition.
The patch enables the HCI_QUIRK_USE_MSFT_EXT_ADDRESS_FILTER quirk
on RTL8852B controller.

The quirk setting is based on commit 9e14606d8f38 ("Bluetooth: msft:
Extended monitor tracking by address filter")

With this setting, when a pattern monitor detects a device, this
feature issues an address monitor for tracking that device. Let the
original pattern monitor keep monitor new devices.

<content type='text'>
This inverts the LE State quirk so by default we assume the controllers
would report valid states rather than invalid which is how quirks
normally behave, also this would result in HCI command failing it the LE
States are really broken thus exposing the controllers that are really
broken in this respect.
