How about the following change, that way if the appearance is already
known if won't be sending the request again:

diff --git a/profiles/gap/gas.c b/profiles/gap/gas.c
index ea3249be9..400818d67 100644

BLUETOOTH CORE SPECIFICATION Version 5.3 | Vol 3, Part F
page 1421

'A transaction not completed within 30 seconds shall time out. Such a
transaction shall be considered to have failed and the local higher layers shall
be informed of this failure. No more Attribute protocol requests, commands,
indications or notifications shall be sent to the target device on
this ATT bearer.'

So the bearer cannot be used anymore after a timeout that is why we
disconnect, are you still hitting this even after removing the read
request for the appearance?
