and that is actually forbidden by the spec. So we need to complain loudly that such a device is misbehaving.

The comment has go above and be a lot more details since this is not expected behavior from valid hardware and we should add a bt_dev_err as well.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll add more elaboration for the new check and
add a bt_dev_err in a v2 patch.
