For a BLE-only device, if the device is already paired and the upper
layer attempts to pair it again, the bdaddr_type will be set to
BDADDR_BREDR since the LE connection is already bonded. This causes the
device to use the BR/EDR bearer, which stalls the pairing procedure and
requires waiting for the pairing timeout.

The bluetoothctl log below shows the error result:
