Subject: [PATCH] Bluetooth: hci_conn_failed: Fixes memory leak

The hci_conn_failed() function currently calls hci_connect_cfm(), which
indirectly leads to the allocation of an l2cap_conn struct in l2cap_conn_add().
This operation results in a memory leak, as the l2cap_conn structure
becomes unreferenced.

To address this issue and prevent the memory leak, this patch modifies
hci_conn_failed() to replace the call to hci_connect_cfm() with a
call to hci_disconn_cfm().
