I get that we need something special for having this in the ACL data packets, but for the standard HCI command I prefer that __hci_cmd_sync is used. I addition, it seems that patch download is the only special case and that happens before at the setup stage. So we could make things special for that. I need to understand this a bit better. Can I get a btmon -w trace.log file from the whole init procedure.

then we need to figure out where the __hci_cmd_sync_ev causes a problem. Since normally that should just work for you.

What does that mean? Do you have an example?
