[PATCH] Bluetooth: hci_ldisc: Fix another race when closing the tty.

From: =?UTF-8?q?Ronald=20Tschal=C3=A4r?=
Date: Thu Oct 26 2017 - 01:15:26 EST


The following race condition still existed:

P1 P2
cancel_work_sync()
hci_uart_tx_wakeup()
hci_uart_write_work()
hci_uart_dequeue()
clear_bit(HCI_UART_PROTO_READY)
hci_unregister_dev(hdev)
hci_free_dev(hdev)
hu->proto->close(hu)
kfree(hu)
access to hdev and hu

Cancelling the work after clearing the HCI_UART_PROTO_READY bit avoids
this as any hci_uart_tx_wakeup() issued after the flag is cleared will
detect that and not schedule further work.
