Subject: Re: [PATCH v2] Bluetooth: hci_uart: fix race during initialization

Hi, sorry i'm new in bluetooth subsystem. I get the following
message from CI:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/bluetooth/list/?series=918554
Where one of tests was failed. Where I can get more information
about failure:

tedd_an/TestRunner_mgmt-tester 	fail 	TestRunner_mgmt-tester: Total: 490, Passed: 483 (98.6%), Failed: 3, Not Run: 4 

?

Thanks
