Yep, currently Linux 4.1 is required,  you can actually check if your
kernel support with the tools/mgmt-tester:

sudo ./tools/mgmt-tester -p "Read Advertising"
sudo ./tools/mgmt-tester -p "Add Advertising"

The tests should all pass otherwise bluetoothd wont be able to work
since it depends on these commands to manage the advertising data.
