Subject: [PATCH] nfc: nfcsim: fix use after free during module unload

There is a use after free memory corruption during module exit:
 - nfcsim_exit()
  - nfcsim_device_free(dev0)
    - nfc_digital_unregister_device()
      This iterates over command queue and frees all commands,
    - dev->up = false
    - nfcsim_link_shutdown()
      - nfcsim_link_recv_wake()
        This wakes the sleeping thread nfcsim_link_recv_skb().

 - nfcsim_link_recv_skb()
   Wake from wait_event_interruptible_timeout(),
   call directly the deb->cb callback even though (dev->up == false),
   - digital_send_cmd_complete()
     Dereference of "struct digital_cmd" cmd which was freed earlier by
     nfc_digital_unregister_device().

This causes memory corruption shortly after (with unrelated stack
trace):

  nfc nfc0: NFC: nfcsim_recv_wq: Device is down
  llcp: nfc_llcp_recv: err -19
  nfc nfc1: NFC: nfcsim_recv_wq: Device is down

This flow of calling digital_send_cmd_complete() callback on driver exit
is specific to nfcsim which implements reading and sending work queues.
Since the NFC digital device was unregistered, the callback should not
be called.
