When the host actively triggers SSR and collects coredump data,
the Bluetooth stack sends a reset command to the controller. However, due
to the inability to clear the QCA_SSR_TRIGGERED and QCA_IBS_DISABLED bits,
the reset command times out.
To address this, this patch clears the QCA_SSR_TRIGGERED and
QCA_IBS_DISABLED flags and adds a 50ms delay after SSR, but only when
HCI_QUIRK_NON_PERSISTENT_SETUP is not set. This ensures the controller
completes the SSR process when BT_EN is always high due to hardware.
For the purpose of HCI_QUIRK_NON_PERSISTENT_SETUP, please refer to
commit 740011cfe948 ("Bluetooth: Add new quirk for non-persistent setup
settings")
The HCI_QUIRK_NON_PERSISTENT_SETUP quirk is associated with BT_EN,
and its presence can be used to determine whether BT_EN is defined in DTS.
After SSR, host will not download the firmware, causing
controller to remain in the IBS_WAKE state. Host needs
to synchronize with the controller to maintain proper operation.
Multiple triggers of SSR only first generate coredump file,
duo to memcoredump_flag no clear.
add clear coredump flag when ssr completed.
When the SSR duration exceeds 2 seconds, it triggers
host tx_idle_timeout, which sets host TX state to sleep. due to the
hardware pulling up bt_en, the firmware is not downloaded after the SSR.
As a result, the controller does not enter sleep mode. Consequently,
when the host sends a command afterward, it sends 0xFD to the controller,
but the controller does not respond, leading to a command timeout.
So reset tx_idle_timer after SSR to prevent host enter TX IBS_Sloeep mode.
