Subject: Bluetooth: vhci: purge unhandled skbs

From: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz>

commit 13407376b255325fa817798800117a839f3aa055 upstream.

The write handler allocates skbs and queues them into data->readq.
Read side should read them, if there is any. If there is none, skbs
should be dropped by hdev->flush. But this happens only if the device
is HCI_UP, i.e. hdev->power_on work was triggered already. When it was
not, skbs stay allocated in the queue when /dev/vhci is closed. So
purge the queue in ->release.

Program to reproduce:
	#include <err.h>
	#include <fcntl.h>
	#include <stdio.h>
	#include <unistd.h>

	#include <sys/stat.h>
	#include <sys/types.h>
	#include <sys/uio.h>

	int main()
	{
		char buf[] = { 0xff, 0 };
		struct iovec iov = {
			.iov_base = buf,
			.iov_len = sizeof(buf),
		};
		int fd;

		while (1) {
			fd = open("/dev/vhci", O_RDWR);
			if (fd < 0)
				err(1, "open");

			usleep(50);

			if (writev(fd, &iov, 1) < 0)
				err(1, "writev");

			usleep(50);

			close(fd);
		}

		return 0;
	}
