What happened to getting this patch upstream? To me it looks like a
definitely needed fix. After adding the fix to restore a sensible value
for disc_timeout after an L2CAP connect request either way and adding a
better explanation to the commit message (that we only get the PIN
request after user has entered one on the remote side, including a
hcidump of this) I think this should go upstream. If this had been
processed in a timely manner it could have made it to 3.5 but now it
seems too late for that (as it's not strictly speaking a regression from
3.4).
