hciconfig segfaults in the Bluez 5.62 release.

The 'hciconfig lm' command, used to show the current link mode settings,
de-references a NULL pointer when calling strcasestr().  This results in
a segmentation fault.  This is a regression in release 5.62 from the updates
to implement the appropriate language changes.

The hci_str2bit() function handles a NULL str value, but strcasestr()
does not.

You will probably need to rebase:
