I thought USBDEVFS_SETINTERFACE was the right command to begin with,
but it seems not working in this case.
The command itself attempts to claim the interface, but the interface
is already claimed by btusb so it failed with Device or resource busy

drivers/usb/core/devio.c:
  USBDEVFS_SETINTERFACE -> proc_setintf -> checkintf -> claimintf
