In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Bluetooth: btusb: mediatek: Fix kernel crash when releasing mtk iso interface

When performing reset tests and encountering abnormal card drop issues
that lead to a kernel crash, it is necessary to perform a null check
before releasing resources to avoid attempting to release a null pointer.
