Some drivers don't necessarily need to have a FIFO managed buffer
for their transfers. Drivers now should call
lirc_register_bufferless_driver in order to handle the buffer
themselves.

The function works exaclty like lirc_register_driver except of
the buffer allocation.

Indeed transmit-only devices don't need an input buffer, which is
just a waste of memory. However can't lirc_register_driver() figure
out from the features if the driver is capable of receiving, i.e.

int lirc_register_driver(struct lirc_driver *d)
{
	int err, minor;

	minor = lirc_allocate_driver(d);
	if (minor < 0)
		return minor;

	if (d->features & LIRC_CAN_REC_MODE2) {
		err = lirc_allocate_buffer(irctls[minor]);
		if (err)
			lirc_unregister_driver(minor);
	}

	return err ? err : minor;
}
