Hi Stefan,

>>>>> Add BCM43438 (bluetooth) as a serdev slave device of uart0 (pl011/ttyAMA0).
>>>>> This allows to automatically insert the bcm43438 to the bluetooth
>>>>> subsystem instead of relying on patched userspace helpers (hciattach).
>>>>> 
>>>>> In order to keep a debug UART we need to switch to uart1.

that is weird since we should be either in a probe context or in hdev->open context and both can sleep as far as I know.
