Changeset 6562d27de0d7 [1] by Oliver Endriss changed the budget-ci driver to use interrupt mode for i2c transfers.

This also meant that a new bunch of IR bytes that were previously lost are now received, which allowed me to better understand how the MSP430 chip works. Unfortunately it also means that the current driver gets some assumptions wrong and might generate double keypresses for one IR command.

The attached patch fixes this by throwing away the repeat bytes and by associating the correct command and device bytes. Please apply.

Since I am not able to test the patch, I'd like to verify that the
patched driver creates correct input events.

I wrote the old IR handling code that is currently in the unpatched driver (based on the work of Darren Salt). I've already verified on my own MythTV box that the patched driver does the right thing. Without the patch, the IR handling doesn't work at all or creates repeated events at the moment.

Would you please post the output of the evtest tool for

I don't think you even want to see the evtest output when running with the unpatched driver :)

Furthermore, there's already two users on-list (not counting myself) who have been helped by the patch, so I think you can feel safe in applying it.
