Commit d4076ae3b7eff09f9d4c1f4193572e27db59dbd9 introduced couple of fields, which are not used in standard bluez user space stack. As a result, the kernel overwrites couple of bytes passed from the user space, when the two functions in the mentioned commit is invoked.

For reference, standard bluez code can be located here:
