If they're not that needs fixing. As for the other ones missing a btd_ prefix you should just fix those too, i.e. this new _str function shouldn't be needed at all. Btw, where's the code for this playstation-peripheral plugin? That would be important to see in order to better understand the use cases these new bluetoothd APIs are needed for.
