Subject: [Bluez PATCH v1] a2dp: Fix race when connecting and being connected at the same time

From: Archie Pusaka <[email protected]>

There is a possibility where BlueZ initiate an A2DP connection just
around the same time as the peripheral also initiate it.

One scenario is the peripheral initiate the connection first, so
confirm_cb() on /profiles/audio/a2dp.c is called. However, while we
are waiting for the authentication step, BlueZ initiate a connection
to the peripheral, therefore a2dp_sink_connect() is called, which
from there a2dp_avdtp_get() is called.

If this happens: When calling confirm_cb(), chan for the
corresponding device is created.

Then when calling a2dp_avdtp_get(), chan will be found as it is
created in confirm_cb(), and the value of chan->io is not NULL.
However, a NULL is supplied instead to create a new session and
assigned to chan->session.

Then when calling connect_cb(), chan->session will NOT be NULL, as
it is assigned in a2dp_avdtp_get(). Nevertheless, chan->session is
always assigned a new value.

These cause failure in connection.

Therefore, fixing this by supplying the value of chan->io inside
a2dp_avdtp_get() (it's going to be NULL on the normal case so it is
fine), and check whether chan->session already assigned inside
connect_cb().
