For RFCOMM_RELEASE_ONHUP devices, rfcomm_tty_install() and
__rfcomm_release_dev() both use RFCOMM_TTY_OWNED to decide who drops the
initial tty_port reference. The release path tests the bit separately
from the install path setting it, so both can drop that reference.
The synchronous hangup does not prevent this race: port->tty is not
assigned until tty_port_open(), after installation. The following
interleaving is possible:
1. Install and release each obtain a reference with rfcomm_dev_get().
2. Release observes RFCOMM_TTY_OWNED clear.
3. Install sets RFCOMM_TTY_OWNED and drops the initial reference.
4. Release drops the same initial reference again.
5. TTY cleanup drops its reference and frees the device.
6. Release performs its final tty_port_put() on the freed port.

Use test_and_set_bit() in both paths so that only the caller that changes
RFCOMM_TTY_OWNED from clear to set drops the initial reference. Each path
keeps its own lookup reference until release or TTY cleanup, preserving
the existing callback ordering and error handling.
