The signal above is 61ms plus four repeats. If you add a ton of repeats
yes, then sure, it becomes a lot longer. You haven't really engaged
with the suggestion that you send signal plus repeats in separate
calls to send.

I'm always interested to learn more about infrared protocols. Do you
have any examples/documentation?

So you're "learning" the codes from the existing remote and then just
repeat it. Rather than sending it in one go, you can replace large
gaps with a call to usleep(), e.g. anything above 20ms or so.

What is signal integrity? What problem are you describing? Why does
usleep() not work?

Sure, I think we need to understand more about the air condition
infrared protocols. The example you've given so far is not really
showing anything special.

I am confused. The mtk driver in drivers/media/rc/mtk-cir.c is receive
only and has no support for transmitting. Do you have a modified mtk-
cir driver or are you using gpio-ir-tx or pwm-ir-tx?

The reason I ask is that some drivers take more locks that others,
and it might be possible to do something depending on the driver.
