please forget about the 5 bits thingy, I told you. Splitting it up into bitlevel will screw up the HCI filter completly. However after a look trough the Bluetooth core it should be quite easy too move the pkt_type into the control buffer. We already use it for a direction bit. The nasty thing is that I have to modify all the drivers. So when you finally decided to shrink the pkt_type, I think that I can come up with a patch for it quiet quickly.
