I tried this together with your kpp patches and I was able to
successfully pair, so from that perspective we're fine and I have no
objections for those patches being merged.

There are a couple of things to improve with this patch however:

The first issue is that you're missing a 'select CRYPTO_ECDH' in
net/bluetooth/Kconfig. Without this you'll end up creating a kernel that
either doesn't build or a module that doesn't load.

Please leave out these include guards for internal headers. We try to
avoid them there to force keeping the dependency chains simple. I
realize you might have copied this from smp.h (which is the only
internal header I could see having this) so that might need fixing in a
separate patch.

Could you try to come up with some shorter names than these since they
cause the line lengths to go past 80 chars. In fact, can't you just keep
the same names as our ecc.c was using. I don't think those names are
taken by your new kpp code?
