With my patch series, NEC16 keymaps are still ok, they'll get
automagically translated to their NEC32 counterparts when they are
loaded into the in-memory scancode table (by treating any scancode >=
0xffff as NEC16, scancode >= 0xffffff as NECX and scancodes >= 0xffffff
as NEC32).

For example, a keymap with a scancode of 0x1122 is interpreted as a
NEC16 scancode with 0x11 as the address and 0x22 as the command, which
will be stored in the in-memory table as 0x11ee22dd (NEC16 is 0xAACC and
translated into 0xAAÂÂCCĈĈ as NEC32).

Not sure I follow. Bytes 2 and 4 are usually inverted in NEC (if it's
the oldschool NEC16 protocol), why would bits 8-23 be inverted?

Mea culpa, I used a .config with some drivers disabled, I've regenerated
the patch series to take ati_remote.c and imon.c into account as well,
I'll post a new patch series as soon as I've understood the lmedm04.c
scancode parsing...

For your testing purposes you could just disable those two drivers.

I'd prefer to have the scancode entries that are NEC16 in NEC16 notation
if possible.

If I understand you correctly, ibuf[2] - ibuf[5] corresponds to bytes 1
- 4 of the 32 bit NEC scancode without any inversion/conversion, right?

If so, the scancodes would be for example:

Type1: 0xef12ba45 -> NECX with addr 0xef12 and cmd 0x45 = 0xef1245

Type2: 0xff40ea15 -> NECX with addr 0xff40 and cmd 0x15 = 0xff4015

Type3: 0xff00e31c -> NEC16 with addr 0xff and cmd 0x1c = 0xff1c
(is that really addr 0xff and not 0x00? if it is 0x00, then that would
indicate a different byte order than simply ibuf[2] to ibuf[5]?)

Thanks for your input.
