so it is trying to call the reset resume. If I try a 'dummy reset resume'

diff --git a/drivers/bluetooth/btusb.c b/drivers/bluetooth/btusb.c
index a7bdac0..cda8137 100644

I no longer see the warning which means that probe is no longer being called.

Marcel, does implementing a proper reset_resume callback seem like the right
approach or do you need more information?

Thanks,
Laura
