Just updating, this patch actually worked when testing with a
different adapter (Fujitsu-Siemens CSR-based). The adapter causing
problems was a Broadcom 2.1, the internal adapter of a Dell Mini10.
Also, suspending the source / sink actually doesn't interfere.

I did a small video of the whole stuff: http://www.vimeo.com/9078799

There are still some problems when testing against Nokia N900 and
2660. After the "enable-modem" step, the RFCOMM link is connected and
the SCO just after that, leading module-bluetooth-discover to load
module-bluetooth-device. Sometimes after that the polling on the
stream fd get a POLLHUP and the module-bluetooth-device unloads
itself. Other times the POLLHUP doesn't happen and the remaining steps
go without any problem.

Ideas on how to improve this scenario will be very helpful.
