[PATCH BlueZ 0/2] Fix DualShock 4 cable pairing

[Bastien Nocera]

I wish we could have full cable pairing support, but this is better than
this whole plugin being unreachable code for DS4 controllers.

[PATCH BlueZ 1/2] sixaxis: Fix official DualShock 4 controllers not being handled

[Bastien Nocera]

The devices changed names, and those do not match the expected name in
our list. Ignore the "Vendor" portion of the device name before matching
it.

This is most likely the result of official DS4 controllers now being
handled by the hid-playstation driver rather than the
community-supported hid-sony.

This fixes DS4 controllers not initiating cable pairing when turned on.

[PATCH BlueZ 2/2] sixaxis: Initiate pairing for all cable pairing devices

[Bastien Nocera]

Fix the cable pairing not being triggered on DualShock 4 controllers.

Note that this still requires an authorisation when connecting through
Bluetooth the first time as we're not exchanging linkkeys. Sixaxis/PS3
controllers aren't paired, so don't have that problem.
