[PATCH v2 net-next] irda: fix link order if IRDA is built into the kernel

When moving the IRDA code out of net/ into drivers/staging/irda/net, the
link order changes when IRDA is built into the kernel. That causes a
kernel crash at boot time as netfilter isn't initialized yet.

To fix this, build and link the irda networking code in the same exact
order that it was previously before the move.

v2 - don't force irda to be a module, make the Makefiles put irda back
where it was before in the link order.
