Either this is leftover from when you did things in ->probe or ->open or this is some thing we might better fix properly in the core instead of papering over it. Can you recheck if this is really needed.

If you really think that it is not chains any side effects we can merge the driver with a big warning and fix this up. However the clean way would be for you to create a patch that introduces __hci_raw_sync_ev as describe above.

What do you think of this? If I add extra atomic_set 1 on cmd_cnt after driver really got a vendor event back instead of blinding to increment for every packet sent.

the behavior is the same to receive a cmd status or complete. it should not have side effects.

 96         skb = __hci_cmd_sync_ev(hdev, 0xfc6f, hlen, &wc, HCI_VENDOR_PKT,
 97                                 HCI_INIT_TIMEOUT);
 98
 99         if (IS_ERR(skb)) {
100                 int err = PTR_ERR(skb);
101
102                 bt_dev_err(hdev, "Failed to send wmt cmd (%d)", err);
103                 return err;
104         }
105
106         if (!test_bit(HCI_RESET, &hdev->flags)) <<<<<<
107                 atomic_set(&hdev->cmd_cnt, 1);  <<<<<<
108
109         kfree_skb(skb);
