SubjectRe: [PATCH] Bluetooth: Fix receiving HCI_LE_Advertising_Set_Terminated event

lets include a btmon snippet here to show the faulty behavior.

Does this really belong in this patch? I think it warrants a separate patch with an appropriate Fixes: tag. Especially in the case we are working around a firmware bug, this should be separate. It gives us a better chance to bisect anything if we ever have to.

I am not in favor of pointing fingers at bad hardware in the source code of core (that belongs in a commit message). Blaming hardware is really up to the drivers. So I would rather phrase it like this:

/* The Bluetooth Core 5.3 specification clearly states that this event
* shall not be sent when the Host disables the advertising set. So in
* case of HCI_ERROR_CANCELLED_BY_HOST, just ignore the event.
*
* When the Host disables an advertising set, all cleanup is done via
* its command callback and not needed to be duplicated here.
*/

> + if (ev->status == HCI_ERROR_CANCELLED_BY_HOST)

And since this is clearly an implementation issue, the manufactures can issue a firmware fix for this. So lets be verbose and complain about it.

if (ev->status == HCI_ERRROR..) {
bt_dev_warn_ratelimited(hdev, “Unexpected advertising set terminated event”);
return;
}

See comment above why this might be better suited for a separate patch.
