Several Qualcomm Bluetooth controllers lack persistent storage for the device address and instead one can be provided by the boot firmware using the 'local-bd-address' devicetree property. The Bluetooth bindings clearly states that the address should be specified in little-endian order, but due to a long-standing bug in the Qualcomm driver which reversed the address some boot firmware has been providing the address in big-endian order instead. The only device out there that should be affected by this is the WCN3991 used in some Chromebooks. Add a 'qcom,local-bd-address-broken' property which can be set on these platforms to indicate that the boot firmware is using the wrong byte order. Note that ChromeOS always updates the kernel and devicetree in lockstep so that there is no need to handle backwards compatibility with older devicetrees.
