[ Upstream commit 2d6f1da168e1d62c47f7d50135ac4cbd8411dcb1 ]
Before attempting to schedule a work-item onto hu->write_work in hci_uart_tx_wakeup(), check that the Data Link protocol layer is still bound to the HCI UART driver.
Failure to perform this protocol check causes a race condition between the work queue hu->write_work running hci_uart_write_work() and the Data Link protocol layer being unbound (closed) in hci_uart_tty_close().
Note hci_uart_tty_close() does have a "cancel_work_sync(&hu->write_work)" but it is ineffective because it cannot prevent work-items being added to hu->write_work after cancel_work_sync() has run.
Therefore, add a check for HCI_UART_PROTO_READY into hci_uart_tx_wakeup() which prevents scheduling of the work queue when HCI_UART_PROTO_READY is in the clear state. However, note a small race condition remains because the hci_uart_tx_wakeup() thread can run in parallel with the hci_uart_tty_close() thread so it is possible that a schedule of hu->write_work can occur when HCI_UART_PROTO_READY is cleared. A complete solution needs locking of the threads which is implemented in a future commit.
