Sure. What to do then if:
1) LE links have MTU (omtu specifically) hard-coded to 23 on kernel.
2) the kernel rejects sending data longer than omtu.
(this is the current situation)
This clearly needs some fix on kernel side, otherwise we can't send
PDUs longer than the LE default MTU (23), *even* if the peer device
supports a bigger MTU.
Suggestions are welcome regarding how to best approach this, without
affecting current BR/EDR MTU semantics.
