[PATCH] Bluetooth: hci_uart: Fix NULL deref in recv callbacks when priv is uninitialized

[Aurelien DESBRIERES]

When a fault is injected during hci_uart line discipline setup, the
proto open() callback may fail leaving hu->priv as NULL. A subsequent
TIOCSTI ioctl can trigger the recv() callback before priv is
initialized, causing a NULL pointer dereference.

Fix all four affected HCI UART protocol drivers by adding a NULL check
on hu->priv at the start of their recv() callbacks: h4, h5, ath and
bcsp.
