Bluetooth: Fix removing Long Term Key
This patch fixes authentication failure on LE link re-connection when
BlueZ acts as slave (peripheral). LTK is removed from the internal list
after its first use causing PIN or Key missing reply when re-connecting
the link. The LE Long Term Key Request event indicates that the master
is attempting to encrypt or re-encrypt the link.
Pre-condition: BlueZ host paired and running as slave.
How to reproduce(master):
1) Establish an ACL LE encrypted link
2) Disconnect the link
3) Try to re-establish the ACL LE encrypted link (fails)
