Those "magic" sizes at the strcasecmp are ugly. Also, you didn't send
a patch for the ir-keytable userspace tool (part of v4l-utils.git tree).
Also, this allows some undocumented (and problematic) ways to set protocols.
For example, if someone writes: something like "rc5necjvcsony"
(on this exact order and without spaces), it will accept it as just "sony",
without complaining.
As I found some time during the weekend to add support for the new /protocols way at
the userspace tool, I'll be applying this patch as-is, plus a few patches after it
fixing the problems I found and adding some additional features that will be needed,
in order to make userspace stuff easier, like supporting multiple protocols specs
without needing to close/open the sysfs node for each protocol.
Btw, we should start writing some docs about the sysfs interface at the media
specs (at Documentation/DocBoook).
Cheers,
Mauro
