Hello.

It's impossible to load lirc_sir needed for SIR irdas used as lirc
device:
lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, major 250 
lirc_sir: module is from the staging directory, the quality is unknown, you 
have been warned.
lirc_register_driver: dev pointer not filled in!
lirc_sir: init_chrdev() failed.

As I know you shouldn't need any specific hardware for load this module,
but you need to free serial port with
setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none
The first (io:0x3f8, irq:4) serial port is the default for lirc_sir.

This it not only 3.4 problem, 3.3 and 3.2 have the same problem.

The module from lirc source can be loaded. But It doesn't compile with
3.4 (asm/system.h: No such file or directory)
It works with 3.2, but there are some other userspace problems, so
I can't be sure that standalone lirc module works fine.
