Bug Description
The problem is related to btusb and ath3k modules.
I've prepared a patch that corrects the bug for kernel 3.2.0-30-generic, but I suppose it can be easily extended to any kernel version.
Other chips (with different VID:PID) may suffer the same problem.

Can you provide some information on the status of the patch with regards to getting it merged upstream? Has it been sent upstream, what sort of feedback has it received, is it getting applied to a subsystem maintainer's tree, etc?
People affected by this bug are probably wondering why the kernel team doesn't just apply the patch and fix it. The reason is that the kernel team is reluctant (not opposed) to apply any patch to a stable kernel that is not from upstream. Applying patches that don't come from upstream add greatly to the support of the kernel as other upstream patches may touch the same area as the non-upstream patch and may prevent them from applying cleanly.
To submit your patch, send your patch with the detailed description/ changelog and your Signoff (ending with Signed-off-by: your name <email>), to the emails listed from ./scripts/ get_maintainer. pl drivers/ SUBSYSTEM- DETAILS (the get_maintainer.pl is from the kernel sources). Once you have sent the patch upstream and it's accepted, please drop a note here so that we can cherry-pick/include the patch into Ubuntu kernel.
