[PATCH] Bluetooth: virtio_bt: Fix use-after-free and memory leak in probe error paths

[ZhaoJinming <zhaojinming@uniontech.com>]

When virtbt_open_vdev() fails in virtbt_probe(), hci_free_dev(hdev) is
called without first calling hci_unregister_dev(hdev). Since
hci_register_dev() already succeeded, the HCI device remains registered
while its memory is freed, leading to a use-after-free when accessed
via sysfs or HCI sockets.

Additionally, the probe function leaks the virtio_bluetooth structure
(vbt) in several error paths:
  - When virtio_find_vqs() fails, vbt is not freed.
  - When hci_alloc_dev() or hci_register_dev() fails, vbt is not freed.
  - When virtbt_open_vdev() fails, vbt is not freed.

Furthermore, when virtbt_open_vdev() fails after virtio_device_ready()
has been called, the device is left live (DRIVER_OK set) while its
virtqueues are torn down, and any scheduled work is not flushed,
potentially allowing a use-after-free from device-initiated callbacks.

Fix all of these by restructuring the error labels to properly unwind
in reverse order of the allocation/registration sequence. The new
labels err_del_vqs and err_free_vbt ensure that del_vqs and kfree(vbt)
are called as appropriate for each failure point. For the
virtbt_open_vdev() failure path, call virtio_reset_device() and
virtbt_close_vdev() before unregistering the HCI device, matching the
cleanup pattern in virtbt_remove().
