while this is most likely a good start to get people going and testing the hardware, I think long-term some these IDs have to move out of this driver and into a Realtek specific UART slave driver (once we get such a thing upstream).

I think one example would be what Fred is currently doing for the Broadcom UART devices. Essentially we are currently misusing the RFKILL switch for an on/off switch of the GPIO lines. This would be better handled by the Bluetooth subsystem itself when you power on the controller.

Regards

Marcel
