Hi,
It seems that most of the chips take a lot of time to detect that a
link in dead, due to out of range or power off (no hci disconnect),
the most common problem regarding this is when we try to connect SCO:

Reason: Connection Timeout
It took 35 sec to timeout where connections attempt normally only take
5 sec due to page timeout (configurable in main.conf), it is probably
due to being in sniff mode but even after exiting it takes another 20
sec to timeout (probably lmp timeout).
So I was wondering why this timeout is not derived from page timeout,
to me it seems quite obvious that if the connection doesn't complete
within page timeout there is something wrong since that is supposed to
be much faster on an active link, also if that assumption is correct
what would be the impact to have such a logic that takes page timeout
as timeout for any connection attempt in active/dead links dropping
them if the timeout is reached, of course this has to take into
account the user authorization framework/defer setup so it only
timeout if there is no activity in the link.
