It's not clear to me what v3 17/20 is achieving, since I thought
returning -1 would be enough without having to skip the call to
process_msg(). If this is assumption is wrong, patch v3 17/20 should
probably be considered a fix, independent of the rest of the patchset,
and be submitted to the stable branch.

Your description above seems to (or should) fit the existing approach,
but you still need the blocking call. Otherwise you can't know whether
the non-optional acquire failed or not. And this information is
needed, because the sink/source resume depends on this operation, and
should fail otherwise.

This is exactly what is not acceptable without major changes in
module-bluetooth-device. It was possible with BlueZ 4, and it seems to
me that it's more difficult with oFono only because the Connect()
method does not return the fd.

This would be valid provided that you could block the thread until the
NewConnection() is received.

I believe it's a big issue not only from the practical perspective,
but also from the design's point of view. All resumes would initially
fail and then get automatically triggered afterwards.

It's been like this for some time and there's no known related issues.
Note that the I/O thread can't do much while an acquire operation is
in progress.
