Johan Hedberg fc75cc8684 Bluetooth: Fix locking of the SMP context
Before the move the l2cap_chan the SMP context (smp_chan) didn't have
any kind of proper locking. The best there existed was the
HCI_CONN_LE_SMP_PEND flag which was used to enable mutual exclusion for
potential multiple creators of the SMP context.

Now that SMP has been converted to use the l2cap_chan infrastructure and
since the SMP context is directly mapped to a corresponding l2cap_chan
we get the SMP context locking essentially for free through the
l2cap_chan lock. For all callbacks that l2cap_core.c makes for each
channel implementation (smp.c in the case of SMP) the l2cap_chan lock is
held through l2cap_chan_lock(chan).

Since the calls from l2cap_core.c to smp.c are covered the only missing
piece to have the locking implemented properly is to ensure that the
lock is held for any other call path that may access the SMP context.
This means user responses through mgmt.c, requests to elevate the
security of a connection through hci_conn.c, as well as any deferred
work through workqueues.

This patch adds the necessary locking to all these other code paths that
try to access the SMP context. Since mutual exclusion for the l2cap_chan
access is now covered from all directions the patch also removes
unnecessary HCI_CONN_LE_SMP_PEND flag (once we've acquired the chan lock
we can simply check whether chan->smp is set to know if there's an SMP
context).
