New 4-series kernel commits

[8Geee]

Just checked in at kernel org...

All newest 4-series have some important commits, two of which concern check/handling the length of the crypto key to insure proper length. Advancement in the crypto-process continued without completion/verification of the key-length checks. Rouge/undefined behavior is possible w/o these patches.

Bluetooth has a series of patches designed to eliminate the "E0(zero)" value in a BT4.x device. The new 5-series specifications do not have this limitation, so it must be added back when a BT4.x device is called. NOTE that "down the line" this also affects security. E0 is forbidden in BT4.x devices. Without the patches rouge/undefined behavior can exist.
