[Bug 591298] [NEW] Bluetooth stops working after suspend/resume and requires reloading modules/restarting service to work again

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

HARDWARE:  System is an Alienware M15x.  The device in question is an
Apple Magic Mouse connecting via bluetooth.  I don't have any other
bluetooth devices to test this with...

What happens:
Everything is fine until I suspend the system.  Once I suspend (S3) the system and then resume, bluetooth no longer works properly. 
  *  the bluetooth applet no longer registers any devices (seems like it is not scanning anymore)
  *  hcitool shows no devices
  *  hcitool scan DOES show devices, but I can not connect.
So, after much trial and error, ignoring the problem with bluetooth-applet, I have to remove all the drivers, reinstall the drivers, restart the bluetooth service and THEN I can manually connect via hcitool (but the applet still doesn't show any devices).

So in reality, there are two issues, but the more serious one for now is
the kernel driver issue for bluetooth.

Steps to recreate:
1: Start with running system, bluetooth mouse connected and usable
2: sudo pm-suspend
3: wait a few seconds after suspend and restart the system (I've been doing it automatically for test purposes by echoing a "+60" into /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm.
4: after system is fully resumed, check bluetooth applet.  No devices found.
5: from the terminal, hcitool scan to get the address of the mouse
6: hcitool cc <address>; echo $?
7: hcitool auth <address>; echo $?
8: mouse never reconnects.

To work around:
1: after system resumes, service bluetooth stop
2: rmmod the following:
  * hidp
  * rfcomm
  * sco
  * bnep
  * btusb
  * l2cap
  * bluetooth
3: modprobe the following:
  * bluetooth
  * l2cap
  * btusb
  * bnep
  * sco
  * rfcomm
  * hidp
4: service bluetooth restart
5: hcitool scan
6: hcitool cc <address>
7: hcitool auth <address>

and the mouse should start working at this point.  The bluetooth-applet,
however still shows no devices at all.
