I think you need to redo the whole patch series, since 1/3 should have hci_codec_list_add in that it adds the codec id from reading the codec list.

And then reading the capabilities just updates the codec.

Our problem is that the whole init phase is rather async than sync in it procedure. And the reason for that is purely historic from the times when Linus had no work queues and we had to process everything in tasklets or spawn kthreads.

Frankly if we moved the whole init procedure to use __hci_cmd_sync we could fold the complete init{1-4} phases into one. And there is no reason we don’t do that. However one problem at a time.
