Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/2] bluetooth: hci_ldisc: fix NULL-pointer dereference
 on tty_close

what kernel version is this against? Our changes in bluetooth-next fixed
some of the destruct handling.

Also hci_unregister_dev should be calling the destruct handler and thus
your change is now accessing hu but it got freed already.
