RE: [PATCH v3] Bluetooth: btusb: Fix suspend issue for Realtek devices

Dear Kernel Maintainer Marcel,
Sorry for the inconvenience. For the original target, this patch is edited for low power consumption hence controller should not receive DEVICE_REMOTE_WAKE_UP that it's able to save power in suspend mode because BT wake-up function is disabled.
In upstream driver, there should be higher priority for function rather than performance. In other words, this patch can meet the low power consumption in suspend mode but will lose BT wake-up function. It is not a good idea for that. Please help to revert this modification.
Thank you.


BRs,
Max

Hi Alex,
