IR raw transmitter driver type is specified in the enum rc_driver_type as RC_DRIVER_IR_RAW_TX which includes all those devices that transmit raw stream of bit to a receiver. The data are provided by userspace applications, therefore they don't need any input device allocation, but still they need to be registered as raw devices.
