Thanks for sending out this patch!
However, you could probably use a little more verbose explanation of
why this patch is needed. The above description is very short and
difficult to see exactly what might go wrong and how your patch fixes
the problem.
From your earlier mail to me:
"The pointer skb may double freed by both st_send_frame() and
hci_recv_frame() functions marked in the following blue boxes when
hci_recv_frame() return –EINVAL

This is useful information, so you should rewrite the commit message
to include these details (not using the image of course, but
describing the problematic code paths), and resend the patch so that
folks can better understand and evaluate the proposed fix.
thanks
