Subject: [PATCH] Add bluetooth support for VAIO VPCEH [0489:e027]

Hi,
this patch against 3.7-rc3 identifies my Atheros AR3011 internal bluetooth 
device, I just transferred some files from my phone to this debian PC using 
bluetooth and it works fine (btw, it needs atheros-firmware package).

Before changing this, lsusb was identifying it as a Foxconn / Hon Hai device, 
which is wrong, and it probably loaded a different firmware to the bluetooth 
module.

The patches solves the following discussions:

Please tell me if you won't add it to mainstream for some reason.

Thanks in advance, and greetings from Argentina.
