Just a warning: do *not* remove nsc-ircc if other modules are using it, it
will not deregister cleanly and it will cause a kernel oops if you try to
modprobe it back.  Stop irda, remove everything that is using nsc-ircc
first, then remove nsc-ircc.

This is not a problem with the second patch, but rather a bug somewhere in
the code in 2.6.17 from which the first patch was made.  Maybe someone
running latest 2.6.17-rc could tell us if they can rmmod nsc-ircc then
modprobe it back safely?  If so, I will hunt down the missing fixes, and
post them here and in thinkwiki.
