[Bluez-users] Error messages from hid2hci

[Scott W Gifford]

After upgrading my D-Link DBT-120 with the Apple firmware, I have to
use hid2hci to put it in hci mode.  hid2hci usually seems to work
fine, except it prints out an error message:

If I plug the device directly in, I get:

  Switching device 0a12:1000 to HCI mode failed (Protocol error)

Through a hub, I get:

    Switching device 0a12:1000 to HCI mode failed (Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character)

This is with a very recent Bluetooth kernel from BK, bluez-libs-2.10,
and bluez-utils-2.10

I think we should not print out certain error codes, because the switch
into HCI will be still succeed. However the error is correct, because
the device resets before the URB is completed.
