With the recent btusb change to detect and deal with more fake CSR
controllers, I decided to see if fake CSR controllers with Barrot
8041a02 chips would now work.
After much experimentation I came to the conclusion that it works, if I
have autosuspend enabled initially and then disable it after the device
has suspended at least once. Yes this is very weird, but I've tried many
things, like manually clearing the remote-wakeup feature. Doing a
runtime-resume + runtime suspend is the only way to get the receiver
to actually report received data (and/or pairing info) through its
bulk rx endpoint.
But the funkyness of the bulk-endpoint does not stop there, I mainly
found out about this problem, because with autosuspend enabled
(which usually ensures the suspend at least once condition is met),
the receiver stops reporting received data through its bulk rx endpoint
as soon as autosuspend kicks in. So I initially just disabled
autosuspend, but then the receiver does not work at all.
This was with a fake CSR receiver with a Barrot 8041a02 chip with a
bcdDevice value of 0x8891, a lmp_subver of 0x1012, a hci_rev of 0x0810
and a hci_ver of BLUETOOTH_VER_4_0.
Summarizing this specific fake CSR receiver has the following 2 issues:
1. The bulk rx endpoint will never report any data unless
the device was suspended at least once.
2. They will not wakeup when autosuspended and receiving data on their
bulk rx endpoint from e.g. a keyboard or mouse (IOW remote-wakeup support
is broken for the bulk endpoint).
Add a workaround for 1. which enables runtime-suspend, force-suspends
the hci and then wakes-it up by disabling runtime-suspend again.
Add a workaround for 2. which clears the hci's can_wake flag, this way
the hci will still be autosuspended when it is not open.

Changes in v3:
- Add info about which fake CSR chip this happens on to the commit message
and source code comment
- Only apply the workaround on this specific chip
