Subject: bluetooth broken in Intel Macbook 2014

Hello,

I've had my first attempt at kernel development in trying to fix a
problem with newer kernels and the bluetooth in my Macbook Pro (2014
vintage). I did the bisecting and found that the commit below seems to
be the culprit.


commit c13380a55522bf14e54779a142487c224509db95
Author: Tomasz Moń <[email protected]>
Date:   Tue Feb 7 12:57:41 2023 +0100

   Bluetooth: btusb: Do not require hardcoded interface numbers
......

Reverting this change in both 6.3 and 6.5 restores my ability to use the
Bluetooth in this Mac. I created a bug in bugzilla for it.


This is new to me, I'm a retired application developer. I hope this is
close enough to the correct process. Thanks,

John Holland
