PATCH 1/1 IR/mceusb: remove bad ir_input_dev use

The ir_input_dev gets filled in by __ir_input_register, the one allocated in mceusb_init_input_dev was being overwritten by the correct one shortly after it was initialized (ultimately resulting in a memory leak). This bug was inherited from imon.c, and was pointed out to me by Maxim Levitsky.

D'oh, there's a minor errorlet in this patch...

This should be dev_dbg(ir->dev, ... (i.e., without the ampersand). Mauro, shall I resend this, or can you fix that at commit time?
