I see this as a simple callback. amp_pending is just keeping context of HCI
command we need to handle. I also included reference counting since we had
bad experience with l2cap and rfcomm.

The picture "Figure 7.1: Overview MSC for physical link create/accept" 
BLUETOOTH SPECIFICATION Version 4.0 [Vol 5] page 49 of 60
shows quite a lot of commands between A2MP messages, I feel that if we
have just callback from HCI event to handle A2MP responses it might be
difficult to sync them.
