Good timing for this thread. I have just integrated the mynewt blehci firmware for the nina-b1 chip integrated onto our SOM. This is exactly the functionality I need in the kernel to make the initialization seamless. A generic device string is exactly what would be needed for most devices that are running in this configuration. We may also want to have a generic reset_gpio handler. -Jon
