====== CSR 4.0 USB adapter ======
It is based on **CSR 8510 A10** aka **Sitecom CNT-524**
CSR = Cambridge Silicon Radio
Supports BLE:
usb 3-14: New USB device found, idVendor=0a12, idProduct=0001, bcdDevice=88.91
usb 3-14: New USB device strings: Mfr=0, Product=2, SerialNumber=0
usb 3-14: Product: CSR8510 A10
without BLE support:
usb 3-14: New USB device found, idVendor=0a12, idProduct=0001, bcdDevice=68.17
usb 3-14: New USB device strings: Mfr=0, Product=2, SerialNumber=0
usb 3-14: Product: CSR8510 A10
Difference is in **bcdDevice** value, which corresponds to device release number.
