Now that SMP has been converted to use fixed channels we've got a bit of a problem with the hci_conn reference counting. So far the L2CAP code has kept a reference for each L2CAP channel that was notified of the connection. With SMP however this would mean that the connection is never dropped even though there are no other users of it. Furthermore, SMP already does its own hci_conn reference counting internally, starting from a security or pairing request and ending with the key distribution. This patch makes L2CAP fixed channels default to the L2CAP core not keeping a hci_conn reference for them. A new FLAG_HOLD_HCI_CONN flag is added so that L2CAP users can declare an exception to this rule and hold a reference even for their fixed channels. One such exception is the L2CAP socket layer which does want a reference for each socket (e.g. an ATT socket which uses a fixed channel).
