Dear Zhangchao,


Thank you for your patch. For the summary, I’d just use:

Bluetooth: btmtk: Add gpio pin to reset bt

How did you test this? Could you please add that to the commit message.

gpio → GPIO
SW → software
reet → reset?

Please also log the GPIO number. Also, a hint, what the user should do 
in this situation would be great.

gpio → GPIO
SW → software
reet → reset?

It’d be great, if this error message could be rephrased, so users know 
what is wrong, and what to do.

A 200 ms delay is quite long. Maybe add the datasheet section as a 
reference in a comment?

1.  Please add a space in the beginning and end.
2.  provides (A spell checker should have found this.)
