I don't see HCI_AUTO_CONN_JUST_ONCE anywhere in the patch. Have you
forgotten to update the commit message?

I still don't like having the term "sock" anywhere in the HCI core. The
fact that a higher layer is implemented through sockets is something the
HCI core shouldn't need to care or know about imo.
Could we perhaps make all of this completely generic and simpler through
adding reference counting the hci_conn_params struct? The socket based
attempt would own its own reference and drop it after the attempt
completes (either in success or failure). Likewise the mgmt based Add
Device would add its own reference which would get dropped once Remove
Device is called. This way the HCI core wouldn't need to care about any
other details of the lifetime of the parameters.

Call hci_pend_le_sock_action_lookup() here separate from the 'params'
variable declaration, and remember that there should be an empty line
between the variable declarations and the rest of the function.

Can't you just use hci_update_background_scan() instead of these three
function calls?
As a general comment I think this patch is quite big and it'd be good if
you could try to find ways to split it up into smaller pieces.
