This patch adds support for Bluetooth sockets to the 
socket module. It supports the L2CAP, RFCOMM and SCO 
protocols. 
I have tested it on Linux 2.6.0 with the built-in 
Bluetooth stack. I have only tested server sockets, 
but client sockets should work just the same.

Looks reasonable to me, except the mention of SCO raises a
red flag. Is this the same SCO that is sueing Linux?

SCO in this case stands for Synchronous 
Connection-oriented protocol. It's one of the protocols 
that can be layered on top of Bluetooth.
