Subject: Re: [PATCH v2] Bluetooth: fix the erroneous flush_work() order

Hi Greg,

> In the cleanup routine for failed initialization of HCI device,
> the flush_work(&hdev->rx_work) need to be finished before the
> flush_work(&hdev->cmd_work). Otherwise, the hci_rx_work() can
> possibly invoke new cmd_work and cause a bug, like double free,
