Moreover, I was under the impression that the input layer was currently considered the "right way" to implement the kernel side lirc needs (AFAICT the lircd daemon is already able to handle events from the input layer). So I'm wondering : in view of a kernel merge, wouldn't it be better for the lirc drivers to be ported to the input layer (linux-input ML in cc:) ?
