Please take a special look at this one: I'm not sure if I'm breaking the 
functionality of deferred connecting using BT_CONNECT2 in 
hci_conn_request_evt() here, as I don't see anywhere where we check for 
this state and establish a connection later.

It seems that this is how hci_conn_request_evt() was initially written 
though, hci_conn_check_pending() only got introduced later and seems 
unrelated.

Thanks,
Jonas
