this is supported much longer, but it was not easy to get it working.

You must recompile your kernel and actually modifying them makes not
really sense, because for example the HCI disconnect timeout is useful
to keep the ACL link open for 2-4 seconds so that it can be reused by
the next L2CAP connection.
