I really mean only once per lifetime of the hci_dev. So you would need to unregister the hci_dev first before hdev->setup will ever be called again. So I am not sure this is actually the problem here. The problem here is entirely within request_firmware() unless of course we run through the USB probe handlers again. Which I do not see happening here. > > And we have hdev->setup this way since normally the Bluetooth devices keep their firmware patches and not forget about them and suspend-resume cycles. If the USB device of course jumps of the bus during it then all bets are off anyway. Usually you can avoid unnecessary rebinding when you provide a proper reset_resume callback. I guess that's what Oliver suggested.
