I was thinking about using bdaddr_type for it or introducing a phy_type. This is not yet fully thought through. It needs a bit of figuring out what would work best. In addition we also need proper reporting in scan reports via mgmt. There either bdaddr_type or maybe an extra flags field to indicate LE coded.
