Reset the BLE stack without resetting the application

If I try to update advertisment data as follows:

    // Disable advertising
    uint8 advertEnabled = FALSE;
    GAPRole_SetParameter( GAPROLE_ADVERT_ENABLED, sizeof( uint8 ), &advertEnabled );        
    // Update the advertising data
    GAP_UpdateAdvertisingData( 0, TRUE, sizeof( advertData ), advertData);    
    // Enable advertising
    advertEnabled = TRUE;
    GAPRole_SetParameter( GAPROLE_ADVERT_ENABLED, sizeof( uint8 ), &advertEnabled );


Advertisment data is not updated and after ~250 times the GAPROLE_ERROR state is reached and after this weird things happen (sometimes even the advertised MAC changes).

Splitting this in two parts, disable and update/enable, solves the problem, but this still leaves the question of how to recover from GAPROLE_ERROR should it ever happen anyway.

Is there a way to recover from GAPROLE_ERROR: I would like to reset the BLE stack without resetting the whole system with SystemReset().
