This is a way to nowhere, there is no logical dependency between LIRC
and input layer IR.

There is only one thing which needs attention before/when merging LIRC:
the LIRC user-kernel interface. In-kernel "IR system" is irrelevant and,
actually, making a correct IR core design without the LIRC merged can be
only harder.
