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
