[PATCH v2] Bluetooth: Cancel le_scan_restart work when stopping discovery

From: Sonny Sasaka <hidden>

Not cancelling it has caused a bug where passive background scanning is
disabled out of the blue, preventing BLE keyboards/mice to reconnect.
Here is how it happens:
After hci_req_stop_discovery, there is still le_scan_restart_work
scheduled. Invocation of le_scan_restart_work causes a harmful
le_scan_disable_work to be scheduled. This le_scan_disable_work will
eventually disable passive scanning when the timer fires.

Sample btmon trace:

< HCI Command: LE Set Scan Parameters (0x08|0x000b) plen 7
        Type: Passive (0x00)
        Interval: 367.500 msec (0x024c)

// Background scanning is not working here onwards.
