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

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
