One of them passes a unsigned long *, the other a u32 *. $ git grep -w hci_test_bit net/bluetooth/hci_sock.c:static inline int hci_test_bit(int nr, void *addr) net/bluetooth/hci_sock.c: if (!hci_test_bit(flt_event, &flt->event_mask)) net/bluetooth/hci_sock.c: !hci_test_bit(ocf & HCI_FLT_OCF_BITS, net/bluetooth/hci_sock.c- &hci_sec_filter.ocf_mask[ogf])) && hci_sec_filter.ocf_mask is __u32 but flt->event_mask is unsigned long.
