Ah, strace was not updated for bluez ioctls.

By digging in the source code, it seems to come from bnep_connadd():

        strcpy(req.device, dev);
        req.sock = sk;
        req.role = role;

        if (ioctl(ctl, bnepconnadd, &req))

Reading from the kernel code, it seems to mean that a session already
exists for the given destination.

Samuel
