An open debugfs file retains its file_operations pointer in the
debugfs proxy state. However, force_suspend_fops, force_wakeup_fops,
aosp_capable_fops, and force_devcoredump_fops have no .owner set to
THIS_MODULE. As a result, full_proxy_open_regular() calls fops_get()
which succeeds without taking a reference to the hci_vhci module.
When userspace opens any of these debugfs files and later closes
the /dev/vhci file descriptor (triggering vhci_release() and
debugfs file removal), the open debugfs file descriptor remains valid
in userspace. Because the module refcount was not incremented,
the hci_vhci module can be unloaded via delete_module (rmmod hci_vhci).
When the userspace process subsequently closes the debugfs file
descriptor, full_proxy_release() accesses the already unmapped
file_operations structure, resulting in a kernel page fault / oops:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: fffffbfff846f18b
#PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
#PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page
Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI
RIP: 0010:full_proxy_release+0x8e/0x140

The issue was discovered via manual code audit of
drivers/bluetooth/hci_vhci.c and verified on a Linux 7.3-rc6 test VM
with CONFIG_BT_VHCI=m by keeping a debugfs file open across controller
teardown and module unload.
Set .owner = THIS_MODULE on all four file_operations structures so that
debugfs pins the module until all file descriptors are closed.
