Arkadiusz Bokowy 7722d6fb54 Bluetooth: btusb: Check for unexpected bytes when defragmenting HCI frames
Some Barrot based USB Bluetooth dongles erroneously send one extra
random byte for the HCI_OP_READ_LOCAL_EXT_FEATURES command. The
consequence of that is that the next HCI transfer is misaligned by one
byte causing undefined behavior. In most cases the response event for
the next command fails with random error code.

Since the HCI_OP_READ_LOCAL_EXT_FEATURES command is used during HCI
controller initialization, the initialization fails rendering the USB
dongle not usable.

This patch was tested with the 33fa:0012 device. The info from the
/sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices is shown below:

T:  Bus=01 Lev=02 Prnt=02 Port=02 Cnt=01 Dev#= 12 Spd=12   MxCh= 0

E:  Ad=83(I) Atr=01(Isoc) MxPS=  17 Ivl=1ms

E:  Ad=83(I) Atr=01(Isoc) MxPS=  49 Ivl=1ms

Now the device is initialized properly:

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
