you have an outdated email from Luiz and I change it to the right one
now.

I looked with him at the patch and I think this will fix it:

diff --git a/net/bluetooth/rfcomm/core.c b/net/bluetooth/rfcomm/core.c
index fc5ee32..2b50637 100644

 		}
 
We need some extra testing on this with the actual hardware we did the
patch for. So this will take at least a few days before we get our hands
on it.

Regards

Marcel
