Paul Bender 5ad1a55542 [media] rc: fix sysfs entry for mceusb and streamzap 
When trying to create persistent device names for mceusb and streamzap
devices, I noticed that their respective drivers are not creating the rc
device as a child of the USB device. Rather it creates it as virtual
device. As a result, udev cannot use the USB device information to
create persistent device names for event and lirc devices associated
with the rc device. Not having persistent device names makes it more

difficult to make use of the devices in userspace as their names can
change.

Forward-ported to media_tree staging/for_v2.6.38 and tested with
both streamzap and mceusb devices:
$ ll /dev/input/by-id/
...
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 9 Nov 17 17:06 usb-Streamzap__Inc._Streamzap_Remote_Control-event-if00 -> ../event6
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 9 Nov 17 17:05 usb-Topseed_Technology_Corp._eHome_Infrared_Transceiver_TS000BzY-event-if00 -> ../event5
Previously, nada.
