Re: [PATCH 2/6] btbcm: disable read tx power for MacBook Pro 16,1 (16 inch, 2019)

Hi Aditya,

Bluetooth on Apple MacBook Pro 16,1 is unable to start due to LE Min/Max Tx Power being queried on startup. Add a DMI based quirk so that it is disabled.

list all the MacBooks that you found problematic right now. We add the
initial as a large batch instead of all individual.

Actually leave the comment out. You are not adding any value that isn’t
already in the variable name or the DMI. It is just repeating the obvious.

Alright, I prepare the patches into a single one

two patches, one for adding the quirk to the core and one for adjusting the driver.
