When the remote controller class is anyway being renamed from ir to rc
this would be a good time to also rename the devices from rcrcvX to rcX.
I know we haven't reached any agreement on whether transmission will
eventually be handled by the same device, but this change will at
least make the device name non-receive-specific which will make it
possible in the future (and if a different approach is finally
agreed upon, the device name still works).

Instead of using the ugly keymap sequences, use the new rc-*.ko keymap
files. For now, it is still needed to have one keymap loaded, for the
RC code to work. Later patches will remove this depenency.

IR is an alias for Infrared Remote, while RC is an alias for Remote
Controller.
While currently all implementations are with Infrared Remote Controller,
this subsystem is not meant to be used only by IR type of RC's. So,
as discussed on both linux-media and linux-input, the better is to
rename the subsystem as Remote Controller.
While, currently, the only application that uses the /sys/class/irrcv is
ir-keytable application, and its sysfs support works only with the
current linux-next code, it is still possible to change the userspace API
without the risk of breaking applications. So, better to rename this
sooner than later.
Later patches will be needed to rename the files and to move them away
from drivers/media, but this is not a critical issue. So, for now,
let's just change the name of the sysfs class/nodes.

Instead of hardcoding the protocols into ir-core, add a register interface
for the IR protocol decoders, and convert ir-nec-decoder into a client of
ir-core.
With this approach, it is possible to dynamically load the needed IR protocols,
and to add a RAW IR interface module, registered as one IR raw protocol decoder.
This patch opens a way to register a lirc_dev interface to work as an userspace
IR protocol decoder.

Now, both driver and keytable names are exported to userspace. This
will help userspace to decide when a table need to be replaced
by another one.

Change the ir-sysfs approach to create irrcv0 as a device, instead of
using class_dev. Also, change the way input is registered, in order
to make its parent to be the irrcv device.
Due to this change, now the event device is created under
/sys/class/ir/irrcv class:
/sys/class/irrcv/irrcv0/
|-- current_protocol
|-- device -> ../../../1-3
|-- input9
| |-- capabilities
| | |-- abs

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Add sysfs skeleton to export remote controller information via
/sys/class/irrcv.
For now, the code doesn't do much. It just exports an attribute that
is meant to report and control the IR protocol used by the keytable.
However, the callbacks for this new attribute weren't set yet.
Also, it lacks symlinks to the used event interface.
