	if (hci_dev_test_flag(hdev, HCI_USER_CHANNEL) &&
	    !test_bit(HCI_INIT, &hdev->flags)) {
		kfree_skb(skb);
		continue;
	}

Wouldn’t it be enough to just add a check for HCI_INIT to this. I mean it makes no difference if ->setup is repeated on each device open or not. We want to process event during HCI_INIT when in user channel mode.
