Sorry for being late. The distros are currently backporting the fixes. You can read about Fedora in the lwn thread. Here’s Ubuntu https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/5.8.0-25.26 Arch jumped a version I think but they are assigned now against the kernel package https://security.archlinux.org/AVG-1248
The fixes for BleedingTooth Bluetooth vulnerability in kernels <5.9 are in; in both stable https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/10/17/156 and mainline https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/10/17/157
