In hci_mgmt_cmd(), there is an if statement on line 1570 to check
whether hdev is NULL:
    if (hdev && chan->hdev_init)

When hdev is NULL, it is used on line 1575:
    err = handler->func(sk, hdev, cp, len);

Some called functions of handler->func use hdev, such as:
set_appearance(), add_device() and remove_device() in mgmt.c.

Thus, a possible null-pointer dereference may occur.

To fix this bug, hdev is checked before calling handler->func().

This bug is found by a static analysis tool STCheck written by us.
