Would it be possible to provide a mgmt-tester case to catch this issue?
The fact that this issue wasn't noticed earlier can be seen as an
indication that the mgmt-tester coverage of this API isn't good enough.

Do you think this is critical enough that we should try to get a fix
still for 3.20 through bluetooth.git? The fact that the patch looks
largely as refactoring (as opposed to a clear fix) might make that
difficult.
