If force_bredr is set SMP BR/EDR channel should also be for non-SC capable controllers. Since hcidev flag is persistent wrt power toggle it can be already set when calling smp_register(). This resulted in SMP BR/EDR channel not being registered even if HCI_FORCE_BREDR_SMP flag was set. This also fix NULL pointer dereference when trying to disable force_bredr after power cycle.
