Public bug reported:

[Impact] 
There's a high chance that MT7921 BT may go out to lunch after reboot.
Worse, there's no way to recover the controller unless the power cord is
unplugged.

[Fix]
In addition to SRU "Need to reset MT7921 BT when the firmware hang or
command no response", enable MSFT extension can magically solve the
issue. 

[Test]
With the patch applied, the MT7921 BT continues to work after 100 times
reboots.

[Where problems could occur]
This fix is specific to MTK BT controllers, so the change is limited.

I totally don't understand why this patch can fix the issue, other than
it just does the trick. So I guess we have to accept the reality that
hardwares can have their own quirks.
