[PATCH v1] Bluetooth: Fix kernel oops triggered by hci_adv_monitors_clear()

[PATCH v1] Bluetooth: Fix kernel oops triggered by hci_adv_monitors_clear()

[Miao-chen Chou]

This fixes the kernel oops by removing unnecessary background scan
update from hci_adv_monitors_clear() which shouldn't invoke any work
queue.

The following test was performed.
- Run "rmmod btusb" and verify that no kernel oops is triggered.

I am happy to apply this as well, but I also applied another patch re-arranging the workqueue destroy handling. Can you check which prefer or if we should include both patches.

Hi Marcel,

hci_unregister_dev() is invoked when the controller is intended to be
removed by btusb driver. In other words, there should not be any
activity on hdev's workqueue, so the destruction of the workqueue
should be the first thing to do to prevent the clear helpers from
issuing any work. So my suggestion is to revert the patch re-arranging
the workqueue and apply this instead.
I should have uploaded this earlier, but I encountered some troubles
while verifying the changes. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Regards,
Miao

Hi Marcel,

In case you missed this thread, my suggestion is to revert the
previous patch and apply this patch. Please see my earlier email for
the reason. Thanks.

Miao

Bluetooth no longer seems to oops for me... but there's different
showstopper in next (graphics -- i915 -- related). Oh well :-(.
