there is no need for a module cleanup. And unloading of kernel modules
still has to be considered as a race condition.

Once you reset the USB bus for example all USB Bluetooth dongles will
disconnect and be powered off and all connections will go away anyway.
There is no real chance to keep connections over reboot.

So I don't see any need for this, but feel free to send in patches for
it and convince me otherwise.

Marcel

The first most useful think is doing module cleanup while rebooting.
About other things, you will know them more deeply. May be like keeping
informing user level utilities to do some interesting stuff like.
Keeping connection settings live post reboot or other.

you must be more specific, because I don't see any need for such a
notifier. What do we get from knowing such events.

Hi,
Reboot notifier will register bluetooth driver to reboot notification
list of kernel. Whenever machine will get rebooted bluetooth drvier will
get notified by type of reboot(Halt/reboot/poweroff). We can do
interesting things after we get notified that reboot will be there.

Sorry, but I don't know what this "reboot notifier" feature really is.
Do you mind explaining it, please?
