Amlogic Meson SoCs include a infrared remote control receiver that can
operate in two modes: in "NEC" mode the hardware can decode frames
using the NEC IR protocol, while in "general" mode the receiver simply
reports the duration of pulses and spaces for software decoding.

This is a driver for the IR receiver that uses software decoding of
received frames.

There are a few checkpatch warnings there:

WARNING: added, moved or deleted file(s), does MAINTAINERS need updating?
#71: 
new file mode 100644

WARNING: Missing a blank line after declarations
#151: FILE: drivers/media/rc/meson-ir.c:76:
+	u32 duration;
+	DEFINE_IR_RAW_EVENT(rawir);

Here the macro is actually a variable definition and so it makes sense
to group it with the other definitions without blank lines. I checked
other rc drivers and many of them have a similar pattern. Could we
consider the warning as a false positive?

Yes, this is a false positive.

patches/lmml_26418_1_3_media_rc_add_driver_for_amlogic_meson_ir_remote_receiver.patch has style problems, please review.

I'm seeing that the DT patches are there, after this one. The best
would be to add them before in the series.

Please add also an entry at the MAINTAINERS file.

I'll reorder the patches and add the maintainer entry.

Ok, thanks!

I don't like very much the idea of filling it like that. From where those
numbers came? Could you add a define for them somewhere?

I've seen that other drivers as gpio-ir-recv and sunxi-cir assign
those numbers to the fields of input_id but I couldn't find a
documentation of the meaning. If the assignments are not needed I will
drop them in the next version.
