 releasing socket

Hi Myungho,

> When releasing socket, it is possible to enter hci_sock_release() and
> hci_sock_dev_event(HCI_DEV_UNREG) at the same time in different thread.
> The reference count of hdev should be decremented only once from one of
> them but if storing hdev to local variable in hci_sock_release() before
> detached from socket and setting to NULL in hci_sock_dev_event(),
> hci_dev_put(hdev) is unexpectedly called twice. This is resolved by
> referencing hdev from socket after bt_sock_unlink() in
> hci_sock_release().
