Doing things like hci_conn_hash_flush() while holding the hdev lock is
risky since its synchronous pending work cancellation could cause the
L2CAP layer to try to reacquire the hdev lock. Right now there doesn't
seem to be any obvious places where this would for certain happen but
it's already enough to cause lockdep to start warning against the hdev
and the work struct locks being taken in the "wrong" order:

but task is already holding lock:

which lock already depends on the new lock.

*** DEADLOCK ***
Fully fixing this would require some quite heavy refactoring to change
how the hdev lock and hci_conn instances are handled together. A simpler
solution for now which this patch takes is to try ensure that the hdev
workqueue is empty before proceeding with the various cleanup calls,
including hci_conn_hash_flush().
