So just to reiterate what I just mentioned in a comment to one of Hans's
hci_bcm patches:

This one would silently break PM for such devices on any system which
does not have serdev enabled (as the corresponding platform devices
would no longer be registered). And with serdev enabled, hciattach
(btattach) would start failing as the tty device would no longer be
registered (but I assume everyone is aware of that, and fine with it, by
now).

Perhaps the hci_bcm driver should start depending on
SERIAL_DEV_CTRL_TTYPORT when ACPI is enabled?
