Hi Howard,

while this looks good, I like to optimize this to only look up the LTK when needed.
/* comment here */
if (smp->method != JUST_WORKS)
goto mackey_and_ltk;
/* and command here */
if (hci_find_ltk()) {
mgmt_user_confirm_request()
..
}
And my preference that we also get an Ack from Johan or Luiz that double checked that this is fine.
