Bluetooth: Fix BR/EDR out-of-band pairing with only initiator data
When only the pairing initiator is providing out-of-band data, then the receiver side was ignoring the data. For some reason the code was checking if the initiator has received out-of-band data and only then also provide the required inidication that the acceptor actually has the needed data available. For BR/EDR out-of-band pairing it is enough if one side has received out-of-band data. There are no extra checks needed here to make this work smoothly. The only thing that is needed is to tell the controller if data is present (and if it is P-192 or P-256 or both) and then let the controller actually figure out the rest. This means the check for outgoing connection or if the initiator has indicated data are completely pointless and are in fact actually causing harm. The check in question is this one: if (conn->out || test_bit(HCI_CONN_REMOTE_OOB, &conn->flags)) { After just taking the conditional check out and always executing the code for determining the type of out-of-band data, the pairing works flawlessly and prodcudes authenticated link keys. The patch itself looks more complicated due to the reformatting of the indentation, but it essentially just a two-line change.
