However I am bit disappointed that we couldn’t get bt3wire.c fixed to be used for this hardware. Having to hack this into hci_h5.c is a step back in my book. And I know what happens now. Nobody is going to work on it and we keep adding hacks and hacks on top of hci_ldisc.c that was never really designed for this. Maybe the next time around I have to be hardline and just reject unclean driver support. In addition I am not happy with the -postfix firmware naming support. I think that is dangerous and might get us into a bad spot. Assuming anything about vendor firmware names and policies is bad. And from what I have seen with Realtek drivers, they are not consistent and are really hacking things together to make it just work for a single design. I really hope this is not coming back to haunt us.
