This happens during firmware download when controller is in bootloader mode. When there is error during firmware download BT driver will not send any further command and since driver is not initialized bluez stack also will not send any commands at all. Only way to recover from this error is to power cycle the machine. Instead of complete power cycle we introduce this recovery mechanism  by sending hard reset command which will only power cycle the BT chip not the complete machine.
