Reviewed-by: Simon Horman <horms@kernel.org> I do wonder if it is appropriate to treat this as a bug fix - is there a use-visible problem? If so, the following seems appropriate to me.

There's a very confusing mistake in the code starting a HCI inquiry: We're calling hci_dev_test_flag() to test for HCI_INQUIRY, but hci_dev_test_flag() checks hdev->dev_flags instead of hdev->flags. HCI_INQUIRY is a bit that's set on hdev->flags, not on hdev->dev_flags though. HCI_INQUIRY equals the integer 7, and in hdev->dev_flags, 7 means HCI_BONDABLE, so we were actually checking for HCI_BONDABLE here. The mistake is only present in the synchronous code for starting an inquiry, not in the async one. Also devices are typically bondable while doing an inquiry, so that might be the reason why nobody noticed it so far.
