When initiating dedicated bonding a L2CAP raw socket with HIGH security level is used. The kernel is supposed to trigger the authentication request in this case but this doesn't happen currently for non-SSP (pre-2.1) devices. The reason is that the authentication request happens in the remote extended features callback which never gets called for non-SSP devices. This patch fixes the issue by requesting also authentiation in the (normal) remote features callback in the case of non-SSP devices. This rule is applied only for HIGH security level which might at first seem unintuitive since on the server socket side MEDIUM is already enough for authentication. However, for the clients we really want to prefer the server side to decide the authentication requrement in most cases, and since most client sockets use MEDIUM it's better to be avoided on the kernel side for these sockets. The important socket to request it for is the dedicated bonding one and that socket uses HIGH security level. The patch is based on the initial investigation and patch proposal from Andrei Emeltchenko <endrei.emeltchenko@nokia.com>. Signed-off-by:
