I personally don't like the __ separator thing. Is this really needed?
What is wrong with using "proto_register()"? Where is the advantage?

And please don't convert from using "err" to "rc" for the return value
of the init function. In the case of the Bluetooth subsystem we never
call these variables "rc" and thus you are messing things up.

Regards

Marcel
