-Arguments
-=========
-
-``fd``
- File descriptor returned by open().
-
-``enable``
- enable = 1 means enable timeout report, enable = 0 means disable timeout
- reports.

-Description
-===========
-
-.. _lirc-mode2-timeout:
-
-Enable or disable timeout reports for IR receive. By default, timeout reports
-should be turned off.
-
-.. note::
-
- This ioctl is only valid for :ref:`LIRC_MODE_MODE2 <lirc-mode-mode2>`.
-
-Return Value
-============
-
-On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
-appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
-:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.

Without timeout reports, it is impossible to decode many protocols since it is not known when the transmission ends. timeout reports are sent by default, but can be turned off. There is no reason to turn them off, and I cannot find any software which does this, so we can safely remove it. This makes the ioctl LIRC_SET_REC_TIMEOUT_REPORTS a no-op.
