From: Srinivas Kandagatla <srinivas.kandagatla@xxxxxx> Thankyou for providing comments on v1 patch. This patchset adds new members to rc_device structure to open rc device from code other than rc-main. In the current code rc-device is only opened via input driver. In cases where rc device is using lirc protocol, it will never be opened as there is no input driver associated with lirc. Thes patch set add fix to allow use cases like this to open rc device directly. Changes since v1: - used rcdev->lock around increments and decrements of users pointed by Sean Young. - Common up code in rc_open/rc_close.
