> before I apply such a patch, what is the actual change here. What impact does this have? Are things like Bluetooth mgmt sockets still operating correctly after this? We have no support for move a Bluetooth controller into a container. The Bluetooth hardware is global.
Hiï Marcel

This patch hasn't nothing to do with the Bluetooth hardware, the 
hardware is still global.
But before you apply this patch, you cannot access the bluetooth 
hardware in a container,
since you cannot create a bluetooth socket if you are not in the 
init_net namespace.
After applying this patch, you can access the bluetooth hardware both in 
the init_net namespace
and containers.
