Realtek bluetooth may not work after reboot: [ 12.446130] Bluetooth: hci0: RTL: rtl: unknown IC info, lmp subver a99e, hci rev 826c, hci ver 0008 The power is not cut during system reboot, so the firmware is kept in Bluetooth controller. Realtek bluetooth doesn't have the ability to check firmware loading status. but the version queried by HCI_OP_READ_LOCAL_VERSION will be different if firmware is already loaded. Realtek's own fork, rtk_btusb also use this method to detect the loading status. So let's assume the firmware is already loaded when we can't find matching IC info.
