We have a BT headset (Lenovo Thinkplus XT99), the pairing and
connecting has no problem, once this headset is paired, bluez will
remember this device and will auto re-connect it whenever the device
is powered on. The auto re-connecting works well with Windows and
Android, but with Linux, it always fails. Through debugging, we found
at the rfcomm connection stage, the bluetooth stack reports
"Connection refused - security block (0x0003)".
For this device, the re-connecting negotiation process is different
from other BT headsets, it sends the Link_KEY_REQUEST command before
the CONNECT_REQUEST completes, and it doesn't send ENCRYPT_CHANGE
command during the negotiation. When the device sends the "connect
complete" to hci, the ev->encr_mode is 1.
So here in the conn_complete_evt(), if ev->encr_mode is 1, link type
is ACL and HCI_CONN_ENCRYPT is not set, we set HCI_CONN_ENCRYPT to
this conn, and update conn->enc_key_size accordingly.
After this change, this BT headset could re-connect with Linux
successfully. This is the btmon log after applying the patch, after
receiving the "Connect Complete" with "Encryption: Enabled", will send
the command to read encryption key size:

In the v2:
- I replaced "goto notify" with if {} else {}
- Change the commit title and description according to comments in v1
This is the btmon log for auto re-connecting negotiation
