Subject: [PATCH] ir-core: Fix null dereferences in the protocols sysfs interface

For some cards, ir_dev->props and ir_dev->raw are both NULL. These cards are
using built-in IR decoding instead of raw, and can't easily be made to switch
protocols.

So upon reading /sys/class/rc/rc?/protocols on such a card, return 'builtin' as
the supported and enabled protocol. Return -EINVAL on any attempts to change
the protocol. And most important of all, don't crash.
