    Kernel Version: 5.14
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: blocking

        Regression: No

After upgrading to newest kernel, firmware for the usb bluetooth fails to load.

dmesg:
[    3.457128] usb 1-5.4: Product: Bluetooth Radio

lsusb:
Bus 001 Device 009: ID 0bda:2550 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. Bluetooth Radio.

The firmware is built into the kernel (with a few others). It loaded
successfuly in kernel 5.13. The other firmware files (intel microcode, amd
poalris) still loads fine. Config file and firmware path hasn't changed from
previous version.

--- Comment #1 from Tadej Obrstar (tadej.obrstar@gmail.com) ---
I finaly got some time to look into this more. After bisecting the kernel I
learned that after tripple checking the spelling I should quadruple check it
too.

I tracked the problem down to this commit:
9fd2e2949b43dea869f7fce0f8f51df44f635d59 is the first bad commit
commit 9fd2e2949b43dea869f7fce0f8f51df44f635d59

    Bluetooth: btrtl: rename USB fw for RTL8761

    According Realteks own BT drivers firmware RTL8761B is for UART
    and RTL8761BU is for USB.

    Change existing 8761B to UART and add an 8761BU entry for USB

    Signed-off-by: Joakim Tjernlund <Joakim.Tjernlund@infinera.com>
    Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

So after changing the name of the firmware blob to be built into the kernel
from rtl8761b_fw.bin to rtl8761bu_fw.bin everything works again as expected.
