the 0x0229 translates to PSKEY_DEEP_SLEEP_STATE if anybody wonders. So
for a full support of the BlueCore6 SDIO interface we would have to do a
little bit more work. I stopped looking into it since the only BlueCore6
that I have is an engineering release and I haven't checked it for a
while. Never got updated hardware. Hint hint ;)

At the last BlueZ developer meeting, we discussed an init stage for all
Bluetooth drivers. The init stage then can be used to init hardware with
hardware specific details like PS settings or firmware download.
