NFC: reorganize the functions in nci_request
There is a possible data race as shown below:
thread-A in nci_request() | thread-B in nci_close_device()
| mutex_lock(&ndev->req_lock);
test_bit(NCI_UP, &ndev->flags); |
... | test_and_clear_bit(NCI_UP, &ndev->flags)
mutex_lock(&ndev->req_lock); |
|
This race will allow __nci_request() to be awaked while the device is
getting removed.
Similar to commit e2cb6b891ad2 ("bluetooth: eliminate the potential race
condition when removing the HCI controller"). this patch alters the
function sequence in nci_request() to prevent the data races between the
nci_close_device().
