Currently the fifo size is 512 elements. After a recent patch the size
of struct ir_raw_event is down to 8 bytes, so the fifo still consumes
4KB. In most cases a much smaller fifo is sufficient, e.g. nuvoton-cir
triggers event processing after 24 events latest. However the needed
fifo size may also depend on system performance.

Therefore make the fifo size a module parameter with the current value
of 512 being the default.
