Thank you for your valuable input and feedback! I greatly appreciate your
response.

I have confirmed that the bug can be reproduced on the latest mainline and it
generates the same issue.

Comment3 has already provided a patch for this bug:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/bluetooth/patch/20231120151039.323068-1-luiz.dentz@xxxxxxxxx/

I have confirmed that the bug has been effectively resolved on the latest
mainline with this patch.

I sincerely appreciate your valuable input and solution once again. It has
greatly assisted us in the bug fixing process!
