more IR enhancements for 2.6.37-rc1

As you already know, we've been making a number of improvements to the mceusb driver's raw buffer parsing routines, both to enhance functionality for existing devices, and to enable proper support for the cx231xx/Polaris integrated IR receiver. These changes to the mceusb driver are all included here, along with a number of fixups for some of the lirc device drivers, and a handful of improvements to the lirc base device driver, lirc_dev, among which is included a fix for an oops when a device using the lirc_dev interface is removed while its chardev is open (i.e., a client, such as irw, is attached to lircd and in turn, lircd is looking at /dev/lirc0 for data).

The following changes since commit 780e312175f688ab5ab6124c91d46fa2b9afe2d2:
