Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * For some Bluetooth devices such as Apple Wireless Keyboard/Mouse,
  you can name them by valid UTF-8 string. However those UTF-8 strings
  are not showed. It is very annoying for the users that they can not
  see those valid UTF-8 strings.

  [Test Case]

   * Pair some Bluetooth devices, such as Apple Wireless Mouse or Apple Wireless Keyboard.
   * Open gnome-power-statistics, you have find that the 'Model' field of Apple Wireless Mouse shows only ASCII without the correct name.

  [Regression Potential]

   * There is no obvious regression as I know.

  [Other Info]

   * This issue is fixed in Saucy but not in Precise, Quantal and Raring.
   * We still need another patch from https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=d0a934b764c67b4bf626f5b7cf725a6e3066afd2 to make Apple Wireless Keyboard show.
