missing support for bluetooth device 0489:e092

[Yvain]

With provided kernel module, Bluetooth pretends to be active but there is no real activity.

* Fix by adding a declaration in kernel sources /drivers/bluetooth/btusb.c

        { USB_DEVICE(0x0489, 0xe092), .driver_info = BTUSB_QCA_ROME },

* Compiled extra module /lib/modules/4.4.0-22-generic/extra/btusb.ko

* Successfully tested against my phone (obex file transfer)
