35d136c8da [media] ite-cir: 8709 needs to use pnp resource 2
Thanks to the intrepid testing and debugging of Matthijs van Drunen, it
was uncovered that at least some variants of the ITE8709 need to use pnp
resource 2, rather than 0, for things to function properly. Resource 0
has a length of only 1, and if you try to bypass the pnp_port_len check
and use it anyway (with either a length of 1 or 2), the system in
question's trackpad ceased to function.

The circa lirc 0.8.7 lirc_ite8709 driver used resource 2, but the value
was (amusingly) changed to 0 by way of a patch from ITE themselves, so I
don't know if there may be variants where 0 actually *is* correct, but
at least in this case and in the original lirc_ite8709 driver author's
case, it sure looks like 2 is the right value.

This fix should probably be applied to all stable kernels with the
ite-cir driver, lest we nuke more people's trackpads.

620a32bba4 [media] rc: New rc-based ite-cir driver for several ITE CIRs
This is a second version of an rc-core based driver for the ITE Tech IT8712F
CIR and now for a pair of other variants of the IT8512 CIR too.

This driver should replace the lirc_it87 and lirc_ite8709 currently living in
the LIRC staging directory.

The driver should support the ITE8704, ITE8713, ITE8708 and ITE8709 (this last
one yet untested) PNP ID's.

The code doesn'te reuse code from the pre-existing LIRC drivers, but has been
written from scratch using the nuvoton.cir driver as a skeleton.

This new driver shouldn't exhibit timing problems when running under load (or
with interrupts disabled for relatively long times). It works OOTB with the
RC6 MCE remote bundled with the ASUS EEEBox. TX support is implemented, but
I'm unable to test it since my hardware lacks TX capability.
