Subject: rfcomm/core.c: avoid dangling pointer, check session exists
From: David Fries <david@fries.net>

rfcomm_process_sessions is calling rfcomm_process_rx, but in this case the
session is closed and freed leaving a dangling pointer that blows up when
rfcomm_process_rx returns and rfcomm_process_dlcs is called with the now
dangling session pointer.  Check to see if the entry is still in the list.
