BlueZ 5.43 doesn't find controller; 5.19 did

From: Dave Beal <hidden>

First of all, thanks to Luiz and Barry for responding to my emails
yesterday.  I have updated to BlueZ 5.43.  However, now BlueZ no
longer finds my Bluetooth controller.  BlueZ 5.19 did find it.  I'm
running Linux kernel 3.10.49 on a Qualcomm development board; "uname
-a" says:

Linux apq8009 3.10.49-g3c78468 #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Jan 16 14:50:44 MST
2017 armv7l GNU/Linux

"hcitool dev" displays no devices, nor does the "list" command in bluetoothctl.

Running bluetoothd with the -d and -n options produces:

Is there something I need to configure so that Bluez 5.43 finds my
controller?  Thanks!
