Hi Johan

Do not close protocol driver until device has been unregistered.

This fixes a race between tty_close and hci_dev_open which can result in
a NULL-pointer dereference.

The line discipline closes the protocol driver while we may still have
hci_dev_open sleeping on the req_lock mutex resulting in a NULL-pointer
dereference when lock is acquired and hci_init_req called.

Bug is 100% reproducible using hciattach and a disconnected serial port:

0. # hciattach -n ttyO1 any noflow

1. hci_dev_open called from hci_power_on grabs req lock
2. hci_init_req executes but device fails to initialise (times out
=A0 eventually)
3. hci_dev_open is called from hci_sock_ioctl and sleeps on req lock
4. hci_uart_tty_close detaches protocol driver and cancels init req
5. hci_dev_open (1) releases req lock
6. hci_dev_open (3) grabs req lock, calls hci_init_req, which triggers oo=
ps
=A0 when request is prepared in hci_uart_send_frame

I can confirm this. hci_uart_set_proto() opens the proto before it
registers the hci device. Hence, we should also unregister the hci
device before closing the proto. I also looked whether this introduces
other race conditions but no proto-callback can be called here as they
are all protected by the tty-layer which synchronizes all
tty-callbacks. Therefore, I think this is the correct fix.

We can apply this to stable even without the "destruct"-fixes from me
as hu->proto->$cb$() doesn't care whether hdev is valid or not. I
don't think the destruct-fixes are important enough to send them to
stable.
