Thanks for pointing that out. I totally agree that it's not a wise
thing to outsmart the symmetric hci_dev_do_{open,close}. However, the
following two cases justify why we need this change.
(1) The current symmetric calls to msft_do{open,close} in
hci_dev_do_{open,close} cause incorrect MSFT features during
bluetoothd start-up. After the kernel powers on the controller to
register the hci_dev, it performs hci_dev_do_close() which call
msft_do_close() and MSFT data gets wiped out. And then during the
startup of bluetoothd, Adv Monitor Manager relies on reading the MSFT
features from the kernel to present the feature set of the controller
to D-Bus clients. However, the power state of the controller is off
during the init of D-Bus interfaces. As a result, invalid MSFT
features are returned by the kernel, since it was previously wiped out
due to hci_dev_do_close().
(2) Assuming bluetoothd has started, and users can be toggling the
power state of the adapter. Powering off the adapter invokes
hci_power_off()->hci_dev_do_close()->msft_do_close(), and MSFT
features get wiped out. During powered-off period, D-Bus client can
still add/remove monitor from the kernel, and the kernel needs to
issue corresponding MSFT HCI commands to the controller. However, the
MSFT opcode has been reset and invalid.

And here is the trace (for case 1 above) that I captured without this change.
