The LIRC people know about this. Pieces of the code are coming from
the LIRC source base and being reworked for kernel inclusion.

LIRC needs a daemon to run and apps have to be modified to use it.
This code runs all in-kernel and looks like keyboard input to apps.

LIRC developers and anyone else and encouraged to help with this code.
