Sorry for the delays in testing out the patch.  I have tried a kernel
with the patch applied, and can no longer reproduce the oops.  The
hid-appleir driver appears to be working correctly, generating key
press events in response to the remote, and LIRC functions correctly
via hiddev.

Thanks for the everyone's help with this.

James.
