The reason I am saying that is because there are still things to be figured out before we can have generic code. So we might accept duplicate at first and once both transports are working, we will slowly start moving code out into a common module. Also I think only BTUSB_INTEL_NEW support needs to be considered in the beginning. The older Intel silicon support should only be considered when the need arises. To give a little bit background, the functions that we need to consider are hdev->shutdown, hdev->setup and hdev->set_bdaddr. That would be simplest split into a separate module. However they are a bit tricky since for BTUSB_INTEL_NEW we already know that we have to handle asynchronous event reception from the firmware download. With regard, I would like to see the UART code first merged upstream and then we go and move common pieces into a more generic solution.
