Hi Azael,

I was finally getting around to these when you resent them. Apologies for the
delay. Travel and still fighting a cold/flu/bug. Sigh. Anyway... on to patch
review :-)

At some point, before we add too much more, it would be nice to convert these
over to DEVICE_ATTR_RW and DEVICE_ATTR_RO. Any reason not to do this sooner
rather than later?

A quick scan of hci_write1 makes me wonder if there are more than two possible
failures. Should we also have an "else if (result)" or "else if (result !=
WHATEVER_SUCCESS_IS)" before we assume success and return count?
