[PATCH v2 0/7] Add support for IR transmitters

[Andi Shyti]

Hi,

The main goal is to add support in the rc framework for IR
transmitters, which currently is only supported by lirc but that
is not the preferred way.

The last patch adds support for an IR transmitter driven by
the MOSI line of an SPI controller, it's the case of the Samsung
TM2(e) board which support is currently ongoing.

Changelog from version 1:

The RFC is now PATCH. The main difference is that this version
doesn't try to add the any bit streaming protocol and doesn't
modify any LIRC interface specification.

patch 1: updates all the drivers using rc_allocate_device
patch 2: fixed errors and warning reported from the kbuild test
         robot
patch 5: this patch has been dropped and replaced with a new one
         which avoids waiting for transmitters.
patch 6: added new properties to the dts specification
patch 7: the driver uses the pulse/space input and converts it to
         a bit stream.

Thanks,
Andi
