Fix: Updated firmware. Test Case: See below. Regression Potential: Limited to specific hardware. --- Below are the steps to replicate the issue We are doing continuous BLE scanning and monitoring the advertisements from reference device. After long periods of capture (several hours), the radio stops capturing advertisements and won't start again until we power cycle the box or manually unload/load the module via modprobe This bug is for tracking purposes only, please don't triage.
