More recently however, Realtek appear to have wisened up and simply
posted a firmware update that makes these devices comply with
normal btusb protocols. The firmware needs to be uploaded on each boot.

Based on Realtek code from https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8723au_bt
('new' branch).

Daniel,

I am told that these changes have now landed in linux-next, and it is time to think about firmware. Are you sending it to linux-firmware, or should I do it?

Thanks,

Larry
