I was referring to hci_ll as to the line discipline driver, not the line discipline itself.
The thing is, there are different Bluetooth combo chips which use HCI to encapsulate commands to the sub-chips behind, and there's also the implementation for TI chip doing that which is in the mainline. So instead of keeping reinventing the wheel, I think it's fairly beneficial for everything if we finally agree on something that works for all the combo chips of the type.
Thanks, Vitaly
