I guess the idea here is that shutdown can be run without the
HCI_USER_CHANNEL flag since the hdev is closing we don't expect any
traffic from socket/user channel? In that case I'd probably suggest
having this on its own function e.g. hci_dev_shutdown which can have
the logic of resetting the flag and restoring at the end. Also it is
probably a good idea to have some test mimicking this behavior on
userchan-tester so we do not accidentally break it.
