I am pretty excited to see this! It always bugged me the bluetooth
driver was allowed to be applied breaking the existing wifi driver.
Except for some cosmetic stuff, I am all happy with this.

bool is large, maybe just use flags or u8's for this? Not a big deal though.

This should all fit in one line - 80 characters

Kernel code is 80 characters wide - maybe create a btcoex helper
function for this?

Otherwise, thanks for digging into this, it's really great to see!
