Leave the bluetooth { } section out of it, but at least fix the bootargs bug and use stdout-path with the correct aliases. Postponing real fixes like this until next -rc1 is a stupid process.

Since this is a real fix, what's the proper Fixes: tag for that so it
can also be backported to -stable trees?

Fixes can be submitted pretty much at any time, and having a Fixes: tag
helps everyone maintaining -stable trees to get that backported where
appropriate.
