I think that it is badly spent time even trying to port it. Everything
of BlueZ inside the kernel is fully kernel specific and the Bluetooth
library depends on the interfaces offered by the Bluetooth subsystem
inside the kernel. However feel free to try porting it, but keep in mind
the every line of code is GPL and that any port must be GPL, too.

Regards

Marcel
