the latest hcidump has support for dumping these packets, but at the
moment the kernel is not sending any of them. I still have to implement
the kernel part for it. Only the basic frame format is defined at the
moment, but no actual message packets are defined.

The main messages would be notifying about added/removed adapters on the
system. Also the exchange of pin code and link keys between the kernel
and the userspace is what I have in mind. The other thing would be
notification of inquiry responses and name resolves. And then I am open
for suggestions.
