This actually got merged into mainline a few days ago via the media tree. http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=c4b0afee3c1730cf9b0f6ad21729928d23d3918e Do you want me to take a look at what's in staging-next and fix that up to apply on top of the above?

No, if it went in there, that's fine with me. greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

There's really no good reason not to just grab the desired IRQ at driver init time, instead of every time the lirc device node is accessed. This also improves the speed and reliability with which a serial transmitter can operate, as back-to-back transmission attempts (i.e., channel change to a multi-digit channel) don't have to spend time acquiring and then releasing the IRQ for every digit, sometimes multiple times, if lircd has been told to use the min_repeat parameter.
