An L2CAP peer can deliver an empty BNEP payload or a payload that contains
only the outer type byte. bnep_rx_frame() currently dereferences the type
byte and, for control traffic, the control opcode before it proves that
those bytes exist in the skb. The setup-connection control path can also
read the setup size byte before it is present. bnep_rx_control() has the
same problem when it is asked to parse an empty control payload.

Reject empty skbs before reading the outer type byte, require a control
opcode before parsing BNEP_CONTROL, require the setup size byte before
using it, and make bnep_rx_control() fail zero-length control payloads.

Sanitizer validation reported:
KASAN slab-out-of-bounds in bnep_rx_frame()
Read of size 1
