so here you should check if we are scanning or not and if this extra handling of restarts is actually needed.
In addition you might really want to check that this is the LE scanning phase. I know that checking for LE_SCAN would do that, but this is a bit dangerous since this code path can also be entered from BR/EDR inquiry results.

We are you moving this check around. There is no point in checking for the UUID when the RSSI threshold is not reached. This advertising event should be ignored.
Especially if this is on BR/EDR or the controller is doing the multiple reporting for us, then there is no point in bothering with looking for the UUID.
So I realize it is desired to only restart when the UUIDs we are looking for is actually found, but that does not mean we want to penalize all other paths or controllers that do not need a scan restart in the first place.

Both of these should have a comment on why this is done. You might also run into the problem that this gets run twice if the UUID has been found in advertising data already.
