This shall probably be handled earlier, perhaps on rfcomm_process_rx
if we can check that had been disconnected, that way we drop packets
that we know don't have any effect since later we do call
rfcomm_session_close e.g:

diff --git a/net/bluetooth/rfcomm/core.c b/net/bluetooth/rfcomm/core.c
index 053ef8f25fae..1d34d8497033 100644
