We need an additional boolean property for TX enable.

Two more configurable parameters for TX sub-carrier frequency and
duty-cycle. By default driver can set the sub carrier frequency to be
38Khz and duty cycle as 50%.
However I don't have strong use case to make these configurable.

So, I think just one boolean property to enable tx should be Ok.

COMMS block is a collection of communication peripherals, and IRB(Infra
red blaster) is always part of the COMMS block.

May renaming the compatible to "st,comms-rc" might be more clear.

It is always refered as the Communication sub-system (COMMS) which is a
collection of communication peripherals like UART, I2C, SPI, IRB.

Its both, some boards have IR and others UHF receivers, So it becomes
board choice here.
And also the driver has different register set for UHF receiver and IR
receiver. This options selects which registers to use depending on mode
of reception.

Am ok with either approaches.

Clock is coming for the device tree only.

I can add the clock and pinctrl bindings to the documentation if it
makes it more clear.

rc_unregister_device does call rc_free_device as well.

Am ok to move to string property for this.

As its freed in rc_unregister_device().
