Connecting Sony DualShock 4 over Bluetooth does not work on kernel 5.3. After pressing the PS button on the gamepad, the LED blinks for a few seconds while connecting and then stays constantly lit when Bluetooth connection is established. However, while "connected", lsusb doesn't show the gamepad and it doesn't work in games.

The problem exists in the mainline kernel 5.3.7 and does NOT exist with 5.2.21. I cannot test 5.4-rc4 because Nvidia driver doesn't compile for this kernel.
