Bluetooth: Fix unreleased rfcomm_dev reference
When RFCOMM_RELEASE_ONHUP is set, the rfcomm tty driver 'takes over' the initial rfcomm_dev reference created by the RFCOMMCREATEDEV ioctl. The assumption is that the rfcomm tty driver will release the rfcomm_dev reference when the tty is freed (in rfcomm_tty_cleanup()). However, if the tty is never opened, the 'take over' never occurs, so when RFCOMMRELEASEDEV ioctl is called, the reference is not released. Track the state of the reference 'take over' so that the release is guaranteed by either the RFCOMMRELEASEDEV ioctl or the rfcomm tty driver. Note that the synchronous hangup in rfcomm_release_dev() ensures that rfcomm_tty_install() cannot race with the RFCOMMRELEASEDEV ioctl.
