It is better to implement the toggle, when it is available/known, as the core will use it to detect when
the same key was pressed quickly twice, or if someone just kept it pressed by a long time.

When this is not implemented and someone presses the same key quickly twice (a "double click"),
the second click will be ignored, if the time is lower than REP_DELAY (by default, 500 ms).

Not all protocols/decoders can detect it though. NEC protocol can't. RC-5/RC-6 can do it.
Yet, not all hardware reports the toggle big on RC-5.

I think checkpatch will accept that. I generally prefer to use:

	foo = (tmp == 5) = true : false;

as some source code analyzers complain about statements like the above.

Yes, that assumes a callback to allow to switch the protocol, OR that the
device can automatically recognize both protocols (there are a few that
are able to handle both NEC and RC-5 or RC-6 without any specific command).
The RC and NEC timings are very different, so, auto-detecting it is quite
easy.

If this is the case for af9035, all that it is needed test the protocol
auto-detection is to replace the table from one protocol to the other and
use an IR compatible with the new table.

In the way this code was written, it leaves the reviewer without any af9035
device to believe that auto-detection is supported by af9035 (and also 
because there's no command sent to the device in order to switch the mode).

It is easy to check if the device accepts both automatically: just load
a different table with ir-keycode and test the remote with a different
protocol.

If this is not the case, then rc.core.allowed_protocols should be equal to 
rc.core.protocol.
