That's not safe. What if sscanf returns 0 or a negative value? In that
case the address variable will remain uninitialized (which is why you
should have just followed my suggestion of testing for < 1 and returning
in such a case).

Thinking more about this situation I'm not sure if it's any better to
allow creation of old entries since you won't be able to remove them
anyway: the remove code looks for a bdaddr#type key which won't exist
and adding code to look for both types of keys is just bloating the code
base for a minor benefit.

So maybe your initial patch of failing in the case of sscanf returning < 2
is good enough after all.
