Bluetooth: btintel: serialize btintel_hw_error() with hci_req_sync_lock

btintel_hw_error() issues two __hci_cmd_sync() calls (HCI_OP_RESET
and Intel exception-info retrieval) without holding
hci_req_sync_lock().  This lets it race against
hci_dev_do_close() -> btintel_shutdown_combined(), which also runs
__hci_cmd_sync() under the same lock.  When both paths manipulate
hdev->req_status/req_rsp concurrently, the close path may free the
response skb first, and the still-running hw_error path hits a
slab-use-after-free in kfree_skb().

Wrap the whole recovery sequence in hci_req_sync_lock/unlock so it
is serialized with every other synchronous HCI command issuer.

Below is the data race report and the kasan report:
