Yes, the low-level basis is similar to e.g. hci_h4.c, where we register to N_HCI line discipline and then use the first byte to separate between different channels.
While hci_h4.c supports only the standardized Bluetooth H4 channels, the cg2900_uart targets also the CG2900 specific H4 channels.

This is just a simplification when using for example dev_err(). It's just to shorten the text (not much in this case but there are other files where it looks better).
No big problem to fix if you want that.

I'm not 100% sure what you mean since I don't think sleep_state should ever be in CHIP_ASLEEP if we have a work ongoing or in the queue, but I will ask our low power expert to look into this.
