Userspace code is normally not thread safe since we usually have been
using the concept of mainloop to avoid entering into the threading
support which might require locking, etc. That said we could perhaps
either not block at vhci driver, with use of hci_cmd_sync_queue, etc,
or use async IO mechanism in userspace so we avoid blocking btdev
handling.
