[PATCH] Revert "[media] media/rc: Send sync space information on lirc device"

[Alec Leamas <leamas.alec@gmail.com>]

This reverts commit a8f29e89f2b54fbf2c52be341f149bc195b63a8b. This
commit handled drivers failing to issue a spac which causes sequences
of mark-mark-space instead of the expected space-mark-space-mark...

The fix added an extra space for each and every timeout which fixes
the problem for the failing drivers. However, for existing working
drivers it  the added space causes mark-space-space sequences in the
output which break userspace rightfully expecting
space-mark-space-mark...

Thus, the fix is broken and reverted. The fix is discussed in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1260862. In particular,
the original committer Austin Lund agrees.
