Subject: [PATCH 3.16 120/158] Bluetooth: Fix using uninitialized variable when pairing

3.16-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johan Hedberg <johan.hedberg@...el.com>

commit 9f743d7499bc2c4dc8c35af33bdb2a29bea663b9 upstream.

Commit 6c53823ae0e10e723131055e1e65dd6a328a228e reshuffled the way the
authentication requirement gets set in the hci_io_capa_request_evt()
function, but at the same time it failed to update an if-statement where
cp.authentication is used before it has been initialized. The correct
value the code should be looking for in this if-statement is
conn->auth_type.
