[PATCH v2 2/2] nfc: llcp: stop processing on LLCP_CLOSED in nfc_llcp_recv_hdlc()

From: Qianchang Zhao
Date: Wed Dec 17 2025 - 08:06:38 EST


nfc_llcp_sock_get() takes a reference on the LLCP socket via sock_hold().

In nfc_llcp_recv_hdlc(), the LLCP_CLOSED branch releases the socket lock and
drops the reference, but the function continues to operate on llcp_sock/sk and
later runs release_sock() and nfc_llcp_sock_put() again on the common exit path.

Return immediately after the CLOSED cleanup to avoid refcount/lock imbalance and
to avoid using the socket after dropping the reference.
