I agree that current upstream will be more consistent if these
settings are made "not supported" for LE (as they indeed are not
implemented yet). I was just confused that the same patch series that
improve LE peripheral support does not include properly support for
Connectable/Discoverable modes on this role (which may restrict the
usefulness?).

Johan: do you have further plans on improving LE peripheral support
after these patches? If yes, please keep in mind that we still have
ongoing plans to push broadcaster/observer roles upstream, which also
requires hability to enable/disable advertising and set advertising
data/parameters.
