Marcel,

Sorry that I did not look into the copyright issue more. I knew that this was 
mostly a copy of btusb.c, and I should have been more careful. There was no 
intent on my part to steal your stuff.

I am not a subscriber to linux-bluetooth, and I have not previously seen the 
discussions/patches on the hdev->setup and mini-driver. What is the current 
status of the setup patches? I could not find them in the wireless-testing tree.

Thanks,

Larry
