<content type='text'>
When the dlc is closed, rfcomm_dev_state_change() tries to release the
port in the case it cannot get a reference to the tty. However this is
racy and not even needed.

Infact as Peter Hurley points out:

1. Only consider dlcs that are 'stolen' from a connected socket, ie.
   reused. Allocated dlcs cannot have been closed prior to port
   activate and so for these dlcs a tty reference will always be avail
   in rfcomm_dev_state_change() -- except for the conditions covered by
   #2b below.
2. If a tty was at some point previously created for this rfcomm, then
   either
   (a) the tty reference is still avail, so rfcomm_dev_state_change()
       will perform a hangup. So nothing to do, or,
   (b) the tty reference is no longer avail, and the tty_port will be
       destroyed by the last tty_port_put() in rfcomm_tty_cleanup.
       Again, no action required.
3. Prior to obtaining the dlc lock in rfcomm_dev_add(),
   rfcomm_dev_state_change() will not 'see' a rfcomm_dev so nothing to
   do here.
4. After releasing the dlc lock in rfcomm_dev_add(),
   rfcomm_dev_state_change() will 'see' an incomplete rfcomm_dev if a
   tty reference could not be obtained. Again, the best thing to do here
   is nothing. Any future attempted open() will block on
   rfcomm_dev_carrier_raised(). The unconnected device will exist until
   released by ioctl(RFCOMMRELEASEDEV).

The patch removes the aforementioned code and uses the
tty_port_tty_hangup() helper to hangup the tty.

In rfcomm_tty_cleanup we purge the dlc-&gt;tx_queue which may contain
socket buffers referencing the tty_port and thus preventing the tty_port
destruction.

<content type='text'>
The tty_port can be released in two cases: when we get a HUP in the
functions rfcomm_tty_hangup() and rfcomm_dev_state_change(). Or when the
user releases the device in rfcomm_release_dev().

In these cases we set the flag RFCOMM_TTY_RELEASED so that no other
function can get a reference to the tty_port.
The use of !test_and_set_bit(RFCOMM_TTY_RELEASED) ensures that the
'initial' tty_port reference is only dropped once.

The rfcomm_dev_del function is removed becase it isn't used anymore.

Implement .activate, .shutdown and .carrier_raised methods of tty_port
to manage the dlc, moving the code from rfcomm_tty_install() and
rfcomm_tty_cleanup() functions.

At the same time the tty .open()/.close() and .hangup() methods are
changed to use the tty_port helpers that properly call the
aforementioned tty_port methods.

Move the tty_struct initialization from rfcomm_tty_open() to
rfcomm_tty_install() and do the same for the cleanup moving the code from
rfcomm_tty_close() to rfcomm_tty_cleanup().

Add also extra error handling in rfcomm_tty_install() because, unlike
.open()/.close(), .cleanup() is not called if .install() fails.

In net/bluetooth/rfcomm/tty.c the struct tty_struct is used without
taking references. This may lead to a use-after-free of the rfcomm tty.

Fix this by taking references properly, using the tty_port_* helpers
when possible.

The raw assignments of dev-&gt;port.tty in rfcomm_tty_open/close are
addressed in the later commit 'rfcomm: Implement .activate, .shutdown
and .carrier_raised methods'.
