Lin Ma e2cb6b891a bluetooth: eliminate the potential race condition when removing the HCI controller
There is a possible race condition vulnerability between issuing a HCI
command and removing the cont.  Specifically, functions hci_req_sync()
and hci_dev_do_close() can race each other like below:

thread-A in hci_req_sync()      |   thread-B in hci_dev_do_close()
                                |   hci_req_sync_lock(hdev);
test_bit(HCI_UP, &hdev->flags); |
...                             |   test_and_clear_bit(HCI_UP, &hdev->flags)
hci_req_sync_lock(hdev);        |
                                |
In this commit we alter the sequence in function hci_req_sync(). Hence,
the thread-A cannot issue th.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
