I had hci0...hci4 then removed hci3 and created again and it chooses hci4.
This is because logic is not smart and just checks hdev->id != id

[  162.994073] Create virtual AMP device
[  163.018114] Bluetooth: min_id 1 id 3
[  166.452585] Create virtual AMP device
[  166.508589] Bluetooth: min_id 1 id 4
[  197.062710] Clean up virtual AMP device => hci3
[  202.391750] Create virtual AMP device
[  202.425382] Bluetooth: min_id 1 id 4
[  202.428386] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[  202.431338] WARNING: at fs/sysfs/dir.c:508 sysfs_add_one+0x9b/0xd0()

We are not running through the whole list, just until found free id.
