It also says
"1.12.x has dissection problems and they are quite subtle, like messed up
channel maps, changes in direction of the packets, not easy to detect and can
be a wild goose chase."

"changes in direction of the packets" which might be due to the original
dissector setting pinfo->p2p_dir = P2P_DIR_RECV; for all packets which now is
changed to:
        context->direction = BTLE_DIR_MASTER_SLAVE;
        pinfo->p2p_dir = P2P_DIR_SENT;
and

        context->direction = BTLE_DIR_SLAVE_MASTER;
        pinfo->p2p_dir = P2P_DIR_RECV;

Which may have solved some problems, as the higher level dissectors seem to
take direction into account in some cases.

Any ways, testing with the current code is the best way of finding and fixing
bugs.
