I'm not sure what you mean. ir_setkeycode() requires the len to be set
accurately; previously it would not work if the len is 8, now it does.

ir_getcodekey() is more problematic, and I may have cheated a bit. The
existing user-space applications do not look a the len, so changing the
len does not affect them. On little endian, if you write a u64 to memory
the lower u32 will be written first, so this works magically. The
set of bigendian systems with old userspace using IR and someone reading
back scancodes must be a small set (so running ir-keytable -r).

What I should have done is write a u32 if the scancode fits into a u32
and a u64 if not. That way, nothing changes on either endian systems
until a 64 bit keymap is loaded, which would need new userspace anyway.

I'm not sure why.

v1.16 ir-keytable -t gets the scancodes from the lirc deivce. Just generating
MSC_SCAN for 32 bit scancodes is a bit confusing when a 64 bit scancode comes
along.

Thanks for the review,
