I have a bad feeling with doing it like this. So I rather try to avoid this. We might need an internal difference between BR/EDR connectable and LE connectable. So that at least we can track this internally independent.

The whole feeding test_bit() as parameter is getting out of control quickly. So I would propose to have one extra flag that gets set.
