Same here.

This issue was already encountered during the last UPF and INdT has a
fix for it. For whatever reason that fix doesn't seem to have showed up
here on the mailing list for upstreaming. In general the capability of
doing ATT signaling should be available as soon as we have a connection
handle, and it should be independent of any ongoing SMP procedure. Only
if the characteristic accessed requires higher security than is
currently provided by the LE link should the ATT procedures fail with an
error. In the use case you describe, since the Name characteristic
doesn't have any special security requirements a request for it should
be always responded to with a positive reply regardless of the current
level of security or if there's an ongoing SMP operation.
