Any chance to get these into 3.3? Otherwise, is it possible to rebase bluetooth-next on top of these so that Greg can get them into 3.3.1 (and the other stable trees) once bluetooth-next is merged? All three bugs can be used to crash any kernel with HCI-UART support and can probably be used for exploits as they are extremely easy to trigger reliably. Thanks, Johan
