This doesn't look correct to me. The only scenario where
hci_remove_link_key() may fail is if there was no existing key (it'll
return -ENOENT then). This is a perfectly normal thing that will occur
for a disconnection of a non-paired device, so any other cleanups like
hci_update_page_scan() should still go ahead.
