> Seems like something with the initial baud rate is wrong. When booting the hardware it is suppose to be set to 115200 Mbps, but it seems to be never reset after unloading the module. It stays at 2000000 Mbps. So when sending the Update UART Baud Rate initial command, it gets send at 115200 Mbps, but in reality the Bluetooth chip is still at 2000000 Mbps. So do we have to pull some reset GPIO to get this back into the original setting? Maybe this is just because the GPIOs are not yet exposed on the RPi3 as of now.

The datasheet says the default baudrate is at 115.200 Kbaud, but it also support automatic baudrate detection. So a reset via GPIO should enforce this baudrate.

The latest version of the GPIO expander patch series is here [1]. Unfortunately not merged yet.

I plan to provide bluetooth support for RPi Zero W. Is there anything missing from driver side?
