I tried to contact the guys from Broadcom, but they never answered. This
makes me really unhappy.

Actually I must say I hope so ;)

The current way of waiting 4 seconds before we kill an incoming and
unused ACL link should be really long enough and in the most cases the
remote device already disconnected it before the timer kicks in. However
I haven't seen any problems in the last three weeks while I tested this
patch on my machines.
