Yes. Sean suspects that we're decoding the NEC 32 bits in the
wrong order at the in-kernel NEC decoder on x86[1].

The idea here is to double-check how the bits are encapsulated, in order
to do the right thing at the IR decoder.

[1] the current code actually sucks, as it produces different
scancodes on big endian or little endian, so it needs to be
fixed anyway, as it simply does:
        scancode = data->bits;

instead of using be32_to_cpu().


Thanks,
Mauro
