LE Coded PHY shall not be used, it is then set for some Intel models

Will this be future proof, once firmware for the broken controllers are
fixed?

Yes, it won't cause any regressions if the firmware is fixed in the
future, but LE coded PHY will need to be re-enabled by removing the
quirks, this is why we say it is broken but we can't depend on runtime
detection and should probably print a warning until we have a proper
fix for it lands at the firmware side. We could in theory set
HCI_QUIRK_BROKEN_LE_CODED based on the firmware version but firmware
versioning schemes tend to change so I'm afraid that could also cause
regression like this in the future.

Understood. Maybe you could add the known broken firmware versions to the commit message for posterity though.


Kind regards,

Paul
