Dear Ryutaroh,

I see thank you for all the dmesg.

please excuse my ignorance first, but are you sure that these
bootflags are still adequate for the latest cypress firmware?

concerning bluetooth unfortunately this seems missing firmware
in latest upstream firmware git (see #962038 ) or possible wget info
https://wiki.debian.org/RaspberryPi4#Bluetooth

this should not be reproducible as 20210315-1 and 20210315-1~exp1 are
unchanged (just uploaded into experimental before unstable).
 
Thank you for your report!
