4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Sean Young <s...@mess.org>
commit 8d4068810d9926250dd2435719a080b889eb44c3 upstream.
If there is IR in the raw kfifo when ir_raw_event_unregister() is called,
then kthread_stop() causes ir_raw_event_thread to be scheduled, decode
some scancodes and re-arm timer_keyup. The timer_keyup then fires when
the rc device is long gone.
