Waiting to be removed. I did, and cleaned the other small stuff.

That's what struct timer_list expects.

You don't want to spend power trying to save power, that's why it is
done lazily.

I'm not sure what indentation you want here. net/ uses different
coding style, not a consistent one, and it is not documented. I tried

static unsigned int
h4p_get_data_len(struct h4p_info *info, struct sk_buff *skb)

as seen net/.

I took a look at h4p_recv_frame, and decided it would hurt the
readability due to control flow.

For skipping and completely ignoring bytes, see h4p_rx_tasklet.

Removed indirection.

> This also seems wrong. You should enable the hardware within the probe function that registers the hci_dev or from a rfkill switch. Not from the hdev->setup callback. This callback is for running HCI commands that handle firmware loading and general configuration of the controller over HCI. If it is not HCI based, then it does belong there.

I tried that, and spent really lot of time trying to get something
working and clear, and this is the best match I could find. Problem is
I need skb_queue_tail() to send management frames, too.

Why would I want to do __u8? This is kernel code, no need to make it
more ugly with __s. (And yes, you have patch to remove some extra __s
from bluetooth core in your inbox.).

It has something to do with vetoing staging merge, and mixing cleanups
with "big" changes. Getting "rewrite this because it does not work" is
fair, getting "to these 1000 cleanups and oh btw you have to rewrite
it because XYZ" does not work as well. Plus, consistent coding style
between net/ and rest of kernel would help. Sorry about that, and
trust me, it sucks on my side, too.

static struct platform_driver can't be const, because rest of kernel
does not expect that and it causes warnings.

make C=... does not seem to work well with cross-compilation. AFAICT
these should be due to missing static and le16 annotations, should be
fixed.
