dmesg after booting kernel 6.16.5 OpenSuse TW

Bluetooth has stopped working completely for me on OpenSuse Tumbleweed. When I
installed TW on my HP ZBook Ultra 14 G1a (AMD Strix Halo) around Aug 10 it
worked as expected. It stopped working at some point but I don't know when
because I wasn't using any BT devices for a couple of weeks, until Sep 8.

I was directed here by distro maintainers after filing a bug there:
https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1249369

I initially created this forum thread, which contains some more info:
https://forums.opensuse.org/t/bluetooth-adapter-not-found-used-to-work/187941

I have tried the following kernel versions:
- 6.17-rc5
- 6.16.5
- 6.16.3
- 6.16.1
- 6.15.8 (version when I initially set up the machine)
- 6.12.45

I have also tried kernel-firmware-mediatek 20250804-1.1 in combination with the
6.15.8 kernel (in addition to the 20250903-1.1 version) without seeing any
differences.

Some more info (all from after booting 6.16.5), and I'm also attaching full
dmesg from immediately after boot:

I believe the first log line is related to the webcam support not yet being in
the mainline kernel so I think that can be ignored here (I have seen that
message since day one).

Please let me know if I can provide more information.

--- Comment #1 from Mattias Öhrn (mattias.ohrn@gmail.com) ---
A strange thing happened. I didn't touch the laptop during the weekend but
apparently there was some battery drain because the battery was flat this
morning. When I plugged it in I was greeted with a ‘updating, please do not
unplug power’ BIOS message and then it booted normally and now Blutooth is
working again. I have no idea where that update came from nor what it
contained. I was checking for updates with `fwupdmgr` last Friday but it didn't
show anything at that point and it seems like this have happened to others on
other distros as well
(https://forum.level1techs.com/t/the-ultimate-arch-secureboot-guide-for-ryzen-ai-max-ft-hp-g1a-128gb-8060s-monster-laptop/230652/127).

Anyway, since it seems like the problem is solved, I'm resolving this ticket.
