        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.
