This change was made to keep the same behavior as before the hci_sync rework. When the adapter is powered off, the advertisement will be disabled, instead of being cleared. As a result, when the adapter is powered on, the advertisement can be re-enabled. There is no need to re-register the same advertisement. However, if the adv is not cleared and the user requested to remove the adv when the adapter is off, it will trigger GPIO reset, so we will not send the HCI command in this case. Changes in v1: - Mark the advertisement as disabled instead of clearing it. - Remove the advertisement without sending HCI command if the adapter is off.
