What is the upstream story on this since the config.txt and everything around it is confusing and also misleading since it relies on a Raspbian userspace. Do we need to the kernel and init to stay away from the ttyAMA0 to avoid confusing the BT chip? As I mentioned earlier, I can not even get a Fedora 26 with hciattach or btattach to work.
