[PATCH 4.19 116/195] media: rc: ensure lirc is initialized before registering input device

From: Sean Young <sean@xxxxxxxx>

commit 080d89f522e2baddb4fbbd1af4b67b5f92537ef8 upstream.

Once rc_open is called on the input device, lirc events can be delivered.
Ensure lirc is ready to do so else we might get this:
