Hi Andrzej, Last year, you submitted a fix for the cx88 remote control not behaving properly on some cards. The fix works fine for me and lets me use my remote control, and I am very grateful for this.
However, I have noticed (using powertop) that the cx88 driver is waking up the kernel 1250 times per second to handle the remote control. I understand that it is needed for proper operation when the remote control is in use. What I do not understand is why it still happens when nobody uses the remote control. Even when no application has the event device node opened, polling still happens. Can't we have the cx88 driver poll the remote control only when the device node is opened? I believe this would save some power by allowing the CPU to stay in higher C states.
