Bastien, Jiri, this patch can be DISCARDED. The hidraw work from Alan
Ott (waiting for Marcel to ACK the bluetooth part) will make this kernel
approach overkill.

I already have some bluez patches based on Alan's work, but I am waiting
for the needed changes to land into linus tree before submitting them.

Sorry for making you wasting some time reviewing this one, I told you on
IRC it could be discarded, but we know: "IRCs volant, emails manent".

Regards,
   Antonio
