[BLUETOOTH]: Fix locking in hci_sock_dev_event().
We presently use lock_sock() to acquire a lock on a socket in hci_sock_dev_event(), but this goes BUG because lock_sock() can sleep and we're already holding a read-write spinlock at that point. So, we must use the non-sleeping BH version, bh_lock_sock(). However, hci_sock_dev_event() is called from user context and hence using simply bh_lock_sock() will deadlock against a concurrent softirq that tries to acquire a lock on the same socket. Hence, disabling BH's before acquiring the socket lock and enable them afterwards, is the proper solution to fix socket locking in hci_sock_dev_event().
