Isn't it enough to check for HCI_RUNNING here? We obviously have a
race here as we take the device with hci_dev_get(), then sleep and
then we do not check whether the device is still alive. However,
drivers are required to reset HCI_RUNNING before calling
hci_unregister_dev() (which is bogus anyway, but its the way we
handled it in the past) therefore it should be enough for us to check
for HCI_RUNNING.
