I think it's probably a good idea to start from scratch. The h4p
driver in its current state does not fit to the current kernel's
style at all.

My suggestion would be to have a driver, which implements a hci_dev.
The driver would mostly look like the standard uart hci_dev driver,
but additionally handles the wakeup and reset gpios. Power
Management for the uart device is done via runtime pm, which is
supported by OMAP's uart driver.

Then there should be a second driver, which implements the h4
protocol extensions from Nokia as hci_uart_proto. It could be put
into something like drivers/bluetooth/hci_h4p.c and have support for
the additional packet types (namely H4_EVT_PKT, H4_NEG_PKT,
H4_ALIVE_PKT and H4_RADIO_PKT).

Ok. I only did a quick look and saw, that the gpio was converted to
irq.

A quick guess (without a deeper look at the code) is, that the ttys
use hwmod provided clock information (which is available from the
kernel). btw, h4p not using hwmod would be another problem, if it is
ok to reimplement a full serial driver.

I guess the clock data should be added to the uart devices in DT,
though. This is btw. true for almost all omap internal devices
described in DT, since the clock data has only been available in DT
for 1 or 2 kernel releases.

you can see, that its a descriptor for the speed of the bcm2048's
system clock.

(from h4p driver)
bt-sysclk = 1 => sysclk = 12000;
bt-sysclk = 2 => sysclk = 38400;

and incidentally there is a 38.4 MHz clock connected to the bcm2048
and the wl1251 in the N900 :)

The clock is not enabled via the CPU, instead wl1251 and bcm2048
enable it themselfes, so it's not strictly needed. But it means,
that

a) DT represents the hardware correctly
b) one can acquire the sysclk speed from the referenced clock
   [ using devm_clk_get() and clk_get_rate() ]
