Hello everyone,

Sorry, it's my fault to cause the misunderstanding.

As I keep mentioning "hci_sock_sendmsg()" instead of "hci_sock_bound_ioctl()". In fact,
both these two functions are able to cause the race.
I sent two patches for avoiding page fault with kernel lock held.

  [PATCH v2] Bluetooth: reorganize ioctls from hci_sock_bound_ioctl()

These two patches will eliminate user-controlled delay at lock_sock() which

would suffer.

Are you aware of more locations which trigger page fault with sock lock held?
If none, we can send these three patches together.

If we are absolutely sure that there is no more locations, we could try choice (1) or (2)
