 This patch doesn't apply to the staging-next branch, care to respin it
 and resend it so I can apply it?

This actually got merged into mainline a few days ago via the media tree.

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=c4b0afee3c1730cf9b0f6ad21729928d23d3918e

Do you want me to take a look at what's in staging-next and fix that
up to apply on top of the above?

No, if it went in there, that's fine with me.

[PATCH] [staging] lirc_serial: allocate irq at init time

2011-06-16 Thread Jarod Wilson
There's really no good reason not to just grab the desired IRQ at driver
init time, instead of every time the lirc device node is accessed. This
also improves the speed and reliability with which a serial transmitter
can operate, as back-to-back transmission attempts (i.e., channel change
to a multi-digit channel) don't have to spend time acquiring and then
releasing the IRQ for every digit, sometimes multiple times, if lircd
has been told to use the min_repeat parameter.
