What about following change:

-    list_add(&hdev->list, head);
+    list_add_tail(&hdev->list, head);

This way hci devices queued to the list as opposed to stacked now.
Usual use case is that we have the 1st device BR/EDR and second AMP.

It is actually how it is done in my RFC, I wanted to make it nicer :-(
