Your fix is right, but please make *sk = NULL here.
When I wrote that code I thought is was a false positive, but no, it's
bug. :(

[1] L2CAP module dereferences an uninitialized pointer within l2cap_connect_req.

[2] I'm currently testing a 2.6.35 kernel on a Nexus One with backported
patches from bluetooth-2.6.  When testing against certain BT devices, I'm seeing
a null-pointer deref.  The crash is caused by this portion of commit e9aeb2dd:

                                        L2CAP_INFO_REQ, sizeof(info), &info);

+       if (!(l2cap_pi(sk)->conf_state & L2CAP_CONF_REQ_SENT) &&

+       }
+
        return 0;
 }

Multiple error cases jump to the response & sendresp labels prior to
initializing
the "sk" variable.  In the case I'm currently seeing, the remote BT
device fails to
properly secure the ACL, making this crash 100% reproducible.

[3] Bluetooth, L2CAP

[4] This bug appears to be in the mainline 2.6.36-rc? kernel, in addition to
 multiple Bluetooth development trees

The following patch fixes the crash.


   --nathan

---
In error cases when the ACL is insecure or we fail to allocate a new
struct sock, we jump to the "response" label.  If so, "sk" will be
uninitialized and the kernel crashes.
