Hi,

I have seen multiple reports on Arch Linux forum of MTK Bluetooth chips
sporadically locking up and no longer enumerating on AMD systems, also
desktops, which had to be unplugged from power to restore operation.

I have also seen claims that auto power management is broken in btusb:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-bluetooth/cover.1774348119.git.berto@xxxxxxxxxx/T/#u

This, if true, offers a plausible theory because:
- URBs issued to suspended devices may fail, drivers may not notice,
make wrong assumptions about their HW state and confuse the chip
- USB core doesn't reliably block submission of such URBs
- they were also seen to break some xHCI controllers, in theory this
might be an HC problem - power cycling resets both device and HC

Regards,
Michal
