Bluetooth: L2CAP: use proto_lock for l2cap_data to fix l2cap_disconn_ind
hci_conn::l2cap_data is accessed without locks in l2cap_disconn_ind via
hci_conn_timeout (disc_work) -> hci_proto_disconn_ind ->
l2cap_disconn_ind. This is UAF if the l2cap_conn is deleted
concurrently.
disc_work is disabled sync in hci_conn_del(), so we cannot take
hci_dev_lock in disc_work.
Fix by using proto_lock to guard l2cap_data, in addition to hdev->lock
which is held in other access paths.
