On most devices using the btqcomsmd driver (e.g. the DragonBoard 410c
and other devices based on the Qualcomm MSM8916/MSM8909/... SoCs)
the Bluetooth firmware seems to become unresponsive for a while after
setting the BD address. On recent kernel versions (at least 5.17+)
this often causes timeouts for subsequent commands, e.g. the HCI reset
sent by the Bluetooth core during initialization:
Bluetooth: hci0: Opcode 0x c03 failed: -110
Unfortunately this behavior does not seem to be documented anywhere.
Experimentation suggests that the minimum necessary delay to avoid
the problem is ~150us. However, to be sure add a sleep for > 1ms
in case it is a bit longer on other firmware versions.
Older kernel versions are likely also affected, although perhaps with
slightly different errors or less probability. Side effects can easily
hide the issue in most cases, e.g. unrelated incoming interrupts that
cause the necessary delay.

I tested this using a script that reboots repeatedly and checks for the
error. With this patch, BT shows up successfully for 100+ consecutive
boots. Without this patch it usually fails after 1-5 boots (or even
always on some boards).
Changes in v2:
- Clarify commit message: Add affected devices and kernel versions
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-bluetooth/[email protected]/
