Hi Marcel,

No problem, thanks. Happy to extend userchan-tester; do you mind if we
continue reviewing this patch for approval in the meantime so we can
mitigate the issue on our end?

Hi Jesse,

A race condition is triggered when usermode control is given to
userspace before the kernel's MSFT query responds, resulting in an
unexpected response to userspace's reset command.

Issue can be observed in btmon:
< HCI Command: Vendor (0x3f|0x001e) plen 2                    #3 [hci0]
       05 01                                            ..

but then you need to do the same on hci_dev_close. Also it would be good to extend userchan-tester with test cases for this.
