drivers:misc: ti-st: fail-safe on wrong pkt type
Texas Instrument's shared transport driver interpret incoming data from the UART based on the various protocol drivers registered to the driver such as btwilink driver or FM or GPS driver which provide logical channel IDs. In case of bad-behavior from chip such as HCI Event response for a GPS command or a HCI Event (h/w error event) for a FM response & In case of bad-behavior from UART driver such as dropping data bytes a fail-safe is required to avoid kernel panic.
