Would like to add one more dimension to the discussion.

The situation of having multiple DVB type boards in one system.

Using one remote would be enough to control the system. So we should have a 
mechanism/kernel config option, to enable/disable an IR device on a board.
For multiple boards of the same type, enable the first and disable any 
subsequently detected boards.
