Re: [PATCH] Bluetooth: btusb: Add HCI reset command on BT shutdown

Hi Amit,

this needs to be a bit more details since hdev->shutdown handling is really only for the older Intel controllers.

Also I am failing to see why HCI Reset helps or what it does here. It is going to be called again on hdev->open the next time the controller is activated.

I do not care what the UI does here. This is power down operation and so it needs to be explained properly. And with a lot more details since I am failing to understand what state is maintained on HCI Reset. As per specification it will reset all Bluetooth states back to the defaults.

There is whitespace damage here. And if this hasn’t been done yet, please first start using bt_dev_err instead of BT_ERR for the Intel parts.
