> Bug description:
> Broadcom bluetooth chips require a tool called patchram uploader [1]
> to load firmware. This applies to at least BCM20702 and BCM43142.
> Although some of the devices have an OTPROM that contains required
> firmware, but it is found that these devices would not have HFP/HSP
> support unless a upgraded firmware is loaded via patchram uploader.
>
> This tool requires hci device to do the firmware loading, but this may
> cause some race condition between patchram tool and bluetoothd or
> something that also works on hci interface.
>
> Also it needs some hooks to make firmware loads after bootup, s3, s4,
> rfkill, and device hotplug events. Implement this loader in kernel
> module would make things more easier.
