This patch included two part actually.

45bluetooth-service adds the argument "--quirk-bluetooth-service-off"
and it is not enabled unless set explicitly. This should be a safe one
to add. And it utilises the built-in functions stopservice() and
restartservice(). This patch does nothing but exports these two
existing functions to users (as arguments).

45bluetooth-service could be a smelly one. But since current quirking
part in pm-utils is for video qurks only. There is no way to quirk a
bluetooth adaptor in the quirkdb. For a short term solution, this
should be a just-work patch.

It was tested with both Broadcom and Atheros bluetooth adaptors
interchangeably on different laptops. This bug is specific to Broadcom
bluetooth chip only. With both use btusb kernel module, it could be a
hardware or firmware-related issue. However I agree with you that it
is good to get upstream discussion.
