issue: #I4RVJ4
CVE: CVE-2021-4202
Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=...

--------------------------------
[ Upstream commit 86cdf8e38792545161dbe3350a7eced558ba4d15 ]
There is a possible data race as shown below:
thread-A in nci_request() | thread-B in nci_close_device()
| mutex_lock(&ndev->req_lock);
test_bit(NCI_UP, &ndev->flags); |
... | test_and_clear_bit(NCI_UP, &ndev->flags)
mutex_lock(&ndev->req_lock); |
|
This race will allow __nci_request() to be awaked while the device is
getting removed.
Similar to commit e2cb6b891ad2 ("bluetooth: eliminate the potential race
condition when removing the HCI controller"). this patch alters the
function sequence in nci_request() to prevent the data races between the
nci_close_device().
