Bug Description
On a stock ubuntu 14.04 amd64 system with an Asus Z97-DELUXE mother board,
I am unable to use Bluetooth.
This is what I see without the patch installed:
$ dmesg | grep -A 3 0b05
[ 2.136473] usb 3-2: New USB device found, idVendor=0b05, idProduct=17cf
[ 2.136475] usb 3-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
[ 2.136477] usb 3-2: Product: BCM20702A0
[ 2.136478] usb 3-2: Manufacturer: Broadcom Corp
$
The following patch to ubuntu 14.04 kernel linux-3.
works to let the Bluetooth device be properly recognized:
git://git.

Works for me in my ubuntu-trusty patched kernel.
I do not see it in linux-stable yet, but it would be nice if it were in both ubuntu-trusty and ubuntu-utopic.
(I had the patch installed in my personal build of 3.13.0-32, but a recent upgrade
took me to 3.13.0-36 and I lost the patch without going back to reboot the
older kernel.)
