so? The firmware guys decided to put MAC addresses and BD addresses into the firmware. So you have to deal with that.
Moving this into the Bluetooth subsystem is as pointless. I rather keep the accessor function to firmware specific data in one place and not spread around the whole tree. Especially once this is also provided via ACPI or some other means. I assumed that is what the whole device_get part was suppose to abstract.
