Well, you might want to poll for the current mode and another mode. Actually,
I think the ioctl should be called LIRC_SET_POLL_MODES to clarify that.
So say if I want to poll for raw IR (LIRC_MODE_MODE2) and decoded scancodes
(LIRC_MODE_SCANCODES), then without this ioctl, I would have to poll one
for a period, then switch modes, poll for the other, switch modes, ad
infinitum.

You're right, I've confused myself! Lirc calls it record and sometimes
receive.

Thanks for spotting that! That should be receive of course.
