I'd like to have my HSP compilation patches in before 6.0 RC1. Can I 
push them?

Ok, with some trouble [1] I installed bluez5 in Ubuntu 15.04 and ran 
PulseAudio git master on top of that, with the native headset backend.

Result: Headset card shows up. Switching between A2DP and HSP seems to 
be working. The hsp profile is called "headset_head_unit", which is a 
change from bluez4, but it's nothing that seems to cause problems for me.

HSP playback and recording seems to work. Volume control (playback) and 
gain control (recording) does not work, i e, changing volume and/or gain 
has no effect on actual volume/gain.

[1] For the interested, I grabbed Debian's bluez5 sources from jessie, 
recompiled them and installed the resulting bluez and libbluetooth 
packages. That caused the bluez postinst script to hang. I worked around 
this by adding the --noscripts option to "dh_installinit" in 
debian/rules. After installation/reboot, I used "bluetoothctl" for 
pairing and connecting to the headset.
