Re: [PATCH] Bluetooth: Ignore IRKs with no Identity Address

From: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

Hi Johan,
The Core Specification (4.1) leaves room for sending an SMP Identity
Address Information PDU with an all-zeros BD_ADDR value. This
essentially means that we would not have an Identity Address for the
device and the only means of identifying it would be the IRK value
itself.

Due to lack of any known implementations behaving like this it's best to
keep our implementation as simple as possible as far as handling such
situations is concerned. This patch updates the Identity Address
Information handler function to simply ignore the IRK received from such
a device.
