To pick up that thread again, if you want that I remove a race in that 
patch I don't see by looking at it, you have to be a bit more verbose 
about the race.

For me it currently reads like you're more talking about an existing 
problem in the kernel. If the kernel doesn't like it that a bt-device 
will be turned on before something like keys and known devices have been 
setup, then the kernel should throw an error back to userspace.

But that's just an assumption from me, I haven't read through all the 
source in bluetoothd or the kernel, but instead just turned on a knob 
like it would be turned on by issuing "power on" in bluetoothctl.
