Bug description:
[Impact]
I have usb bluetooth 5.0 dongle which uses Realtek RTL8761B chip.
0bda:8771 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. Bluetooth Radio
USB adapter very often stops working, can't connect or find other
bluetooth devices. The adapter can't work even after reboots.
The following entries appear in the log:
апр 11 13:47:14 desktop kernel: Bluetooth: hci0: command 0x2005 tx timeout
апр 11 13:47:16 desktop kernel: Bluetooth: hci0: command 0x2041 tx timeout
апр 11 13:47:18 desktop kernel: Bluetooth: hci0: command 0x2042 tx timeout
Firmware loaded correctly, but something is not working.

1) I use:
Description: Ubuntu Jammy Jellyfish (development branch)
Release: 22.04
2) linux-firmware: 20220329.git681281e4-0ubuntu1
3) What you expected to happen? I expect a well working bluetooth adapter.
4) What happened instead? My bluetooth adapter may work, may not. The adapter
may stop finding and connecting to other devices.
I've found the same bug https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=214111#c1
I've downloaded Windows's archive
http://download.windowsupdate.com/d/msdownload/update/driver/drvs/2021/05/ca0e770c-6a5d-4de0-b37a-f4b91cccd8c3_7778831d2b9d721cf94d5a8d8c0676ff1b96c874.cab
I've unpacked file rtl8761b_mp_chip_bt40_fw_asic_rom_patch_new.dll and
replaced /usr/lib/firmware/rtl_bt/rtl8761bu_fw.bin and deleted
rtl8761bu_config.bin
After I changed firmware my usb dongle work fine.
Could you change firmware rtl8761bu_fw.bin rtl8761bu_config.bin to other
correct version?
Could you move Realtek's rtl_bt firmware or RTL8761B's firmware into separate
packages. I will remove the RTL8761B firmware package and put them manually.

Realtek's worker updated these bad firmware.

[Test Case]
Connect to and use a bluetooth device connected to a RTL8761B base USB
BT controller.
[Fix]
Use latest rtl8761bu firmware blobs updates from linux-firmware.
[Where Problems Could Occur]
These firmwares are specific for the rtl8671b chips. So users of USB
or UART BT controllers based on that chip could see problems when
trying to connect to and use bluetooth devices.
