To avoid the firmware loading race between Bluetooth and WiFi on Intel
8260, load firmware exclusively when BT_INTEL is enabled.

Still the commit log tells nothing about the actual problem which makes
review impossible.

Sorry for that. The first two patches [1] only sends to linux-bluetooth and LMKL.

I don’t know what really happened at hardware/firmware level, but making btusb and iwlwifi load firmware sequentially can workaround the issue.

Matt Chen may be able to explain this issue with more detail.
