Specifically it's for BT SCO (in call 8kHz headset modes).  In call
audio generally doesn't go through the CPU, the BT device has a path to
the baseband via some other route which is typically similar to or part
of the connection the CODEC has which bypasses the CPU entirely allowing
the CPU to be suspended.
