Subject: [PATCH] drivers/bluetooth/hci_ldisc.c: fix possible NULL
	dereferences

Commit 22ad42033b7d2b3d7928fba9f89d1c7f8a3c9581 did not completely fix all 
the possible NULL dereferences. Besides hci_uart_close(), we also need to 
make sure that hdev is valid before calling hci_{unregister,free}_dev().
