Heippa,

Thanks for the patch! I know Mauro has already applied this so any changes
would make a separate patch.

I have tested this up to the point I can see that the IR LED blinks  ---
using my phone's camera. :-) But I have no receivers so the testing ends to
this.

Just a general question: how much this driver actually depends on the N900?
I can see there's a dependency to OMAP DM timers, but couldn't you use the
same driver if you just wired the IR LED there? Even the timer configuration
is there, so it looks a lot more generic than N900-specific.

You also should depend on LIRC.

pwm_timer is signed in platform data. Shouldn't this one be as well?

Shouldn't counter be unsigned int?

Do you really need the macro and the casting to long it does? You could
replace this with

return (int)(omap_dm_timer_read_counter(lirc_rx51->pulse_timer) - counter) < 0;

Unneeded parenthesis.

What does "7" actually signify?

BUG_ON() here seems a little harsh. I'd remove it and check platform data in
probe() instead --- which isn't done btw.

Could you allocate lirc_driver and lirc_rx51 dynamically instead? I guess
no-one is going to add a second IR transmitter to RX-51 but as noted
earlier, the driver is more generic than that.

You could use module_platform_driver macro.

Could we call directly omap_pm_set_max_mpu_wakeup_lat() instead of having a
pointer in the platform data? The issue with that, however, is that the
function isn't exported to modules, forcing to link ir-rx51 into the kernel
directly.

The board code has to be converted to device tree anyway and I don't think
we can have pointers to the kernel binary there. You may also get a NAK on
patches adding new things to board code files.

One example of how to do this is arch/arm/plat-omap/i2c.c .

I think that the OMAP 3 ISP suffers from exactly the same issue of not being
able to wake up the MPU. For the ISP it's been handled here:

        arch/arm/mach-omap2/cpuidle34xx.c

Look for "CAM". I wonder if we should / could do something similar for DM
timers.

The discussion on the issue with the ISP is here:
