These patches are a replacement for the moderate one chunk I sent out yesterday.
They continue in the same vein of revising how IRDA devices are allocated.
The new thing is the introduction of alloc_irdadev and changing over the places
I used alloc_netdev to that.

Mostly they are trivial, but smsc-ircc2 got changed to get rid of check_region
usage as well.

David, please apply after Jean gives his approval.

	The self destruct patch is absolutely needed, and I like very
much the alloc_irdadev work.
	Please go ahead, I'll test them in parallel.
	Thanks !

I hadn't yet time for testing but since you were asking: I do also like 
the alloc_irdadev/free_netdev approach and the sir_dev part looks good to 
me, i.e. no leaking there. Thanks Stephen!
