Thank you for keeping me up to date, here are my test results with todays 
(36e60bd457588b2a2fd37e0c1d0652a9fe214d85) git:

- Compiles fine, except some warnings:

drivers/input/lirc/lirc_dev.h:60:
  warning: 'lirc_buffer_available' defined but not used
drivers/input/lirc/lirc_dev.h:72:

  warning: 'lirc_buffer_available' defined but not used
drivers/input/lirc/lirc_dev.h:66:
  warning: 'lirc_buffer_read' defined but not used

- Module loads fine, with this messages:

lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, major 252 
lirc_serial: auto-detected active low receiver
lirc_dev: lirc_register_driver: sample_rate: 0

- But lircd crashes immediately every time irexec/irw tries to connect:

If wanted I could start a bisect on this.
