Bug 2507150 (CVE-2026-64434)

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

Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix UAF in channel timeout by holding conn ref

l2cap_chan_timeout() runs asynchronously and accesses chan->conn. If
the connection is torn down while the timer is running or pending,
chan->conn can be freed, leading to a use-after-free when the timer
worker attempts to lock conn->lock:

Fix it by having chan->conn hold a reference to l2cap_conn (via
l2cap_conn_get) when the channel is added to the connection, and
releasing it in the channel destructor. This ensures the l2cap_conn
remains alive as long as the channel exists.

A new FLAG_DEL channel flag is introduced to indicate that the ch
