So you would need to unregister the hci_dev first before hdev->setup will ever be called again. So I am not sure this is actually the problem here. The problem here is entirely within request_firmware() unless of course we run through the USB probe handlers again. Which I do not see happening here.

It seems most likely to me that probing is indeed done again.
btusb does not implement reset_resume(). If power goes away
as is usual on S3/4 the device is reenumerated. The original
trace has a call to btusb_setup_bcm_patchram().
What else could be happening?
