The problem is that llcp_sock_bind/llcp_raw_sock_bind do not check
sockaddr_len passed in, so they copy stack garbage from stack into the
socket and then return it in getsockname.
This can defeat ASLR, leak crypto keys, etc.

That's actually the first thing these functions do.

They completely clear out the on-stack llcp_addr, then they copy only
as much as the user gave them, being careful not to use more than
sizeof(llcp_addr).

        memset(&llcp_addr, 0, sizeof(llcp_addr));
        len = min_t(unsigned int, sizeof(llcp_addr), alen);
        memcpy(&llcp_addr, addr, len);

I don't see what the problem is, you'll need to be more specific.

You are right. Sorry.

There still seems to be a minor leak here:

  if (!addr || addr->sa_family != AF_NFC)
      return -EINVAL;

addr->sa_family can be uninit.
