Is this problem specific to a certain chipset?

What are the symptoms?

nit: MAX_RETRIES or MAX_INIT_RETRIES?

The QCA prefix just adds noise here IMO, there's no need to disambiguate
the constant from other retries since it is defined in hci_qca.c.

nit: the name is a bit clunky, how about 'retries'?

Shouldn't this be in qca_power_on(), analogous to the power off code from
"[1/4]Bluetooth: hci_qca: Add QCA Rome power off support to the
qca_power_off()"?

qca_power_on() should then also be called for ROME. If you opt for this it
should be done in a separate patch, or possibly merged into the one
mentioned above.

nit: "failed to open port"
