this is not what we can do here. The flags are defined like this.

        The following bits are defined for the Flags parameter:

                0       Feature active
                1       Causes change in supported settings

And I want these flags for generic handling of experimental features. Individual features can not overwrite it.

So if you only want to support a the “read" functionality, then something like this please.

	if ((hdev->le_states[4] & 0x08) &&	/* Central */
	    (hdev->le_states[4] & 0x40) &&	/* Peripheral */
	    (hdev->le_states[3] & 0x10) &&	/* Simultaneous */
	    test_bit(HCI_QUIRK_VALID_LE_STATES, &hdev->quirks))
		flags |= BIT(0);

And I would put it all here instead of a separate function.
