The RC_TYPE_* defines are currently used both where a single protocol is
expected and where a bitmap of protocols is expected.
Functions like rc_keydown() and functions which add/remove entries to the
keytable want a single protocol. Future userspace APIs would also
benefit from numeric protocols (rather than bitmap ones). Keytables are
smaller if they can use a small(ish) integer rather than a bitmap.
Other functions or struct members (e.g. allowed_protos,
enabled_protocols, etc) accept multiple protocols and need a bitmap.
Using different types reduces the risk of programmer error. Using a
protocol enum whereever possible also makes for a more future-proof
user-space API as we don't need to worry about a sufficient number of
bits being available (e.g. in structs used for ioctl() calls).
The use of both a number and a corresponding bit is dalso one in e.g.
the input subsystem as well (see all the references to set/clear bit when
changing keytables for example).
This patch separate the different usages in preparation for
upcoming patches.
Where a single protocol is expected, enum rc_type is used; where one or more
protocol(s) are expected, something like u64 is used.
The patch has been rewritten so that the format of the sysfs "protocols"
file is no longer altered (at the loss of some detail). The file itself
should probably be deprecated in the future though.

This patch to the IR RC6 decoder adds support for variable length
mode-6A frames which can range in size from 8 to 128 bits. Please refer
to the following link for a detailed explanation or RC6 frames:
http://slydiman.narod.ru/scr/kb/rc6.htm
This change removes the assumption that frames are fixed length
(currently either 24 or 32 data bits) and actually counts the number of
bits until an end of frame marker is seen.

A pending cleanup will mean that module.h won't be implicitly
everywhere anymore. Make sure the modular drivers in clocksource
are actually calling out for <module.h> explicitly in advance.

This patch merges the ir_input_dev and ir_dev_props structs into a single
struct called rc_dev. The drivers and various functions in rc-core used
by the drivers are also changed to use rc_dev as the primary interface
when dealing with rc-core.
This means that the input_dev is abstracted away from the drivers which
is necessary if we ever want to support multiple input devs per rc device.
The new API is similar to what the input subsystem uses, i.e:
rc_device_alloc()
rc_device_free()
rc_device_register()
rc_device_unregister()
