IR raw transmitter driver type is specified in the enum
rc_driver_type as RC_DRIVER_IR_RAW_TX which includes all those
devices that transmit raw stream of bit to a receiver.

The data are provided by userspace applications, therefore they
don't need any input device allocation, but still they need to be
registered as raw devices.

Here the if is wrong. It should be 
"if (dev->driver_type != RC_DRIVER_IR_RAW_TX)". Note that as result
the decoder thread is not started, so patch 4 won't be needed either.

The comment should really mention the lack of receiver.

Hi Sean,

but I need the ir-lirc-codec as it handles the interface with
userspace and it calls the tx_ir and s_tx_carrier.

if I do "if (dev->driver_type != RC_DRIVER_IR_RAW_TX)" the
lirc-codec is not called and I would need to handle it on my
driver, but then we fall in the first version of the driver.

Thanks,
Andi
