== SRU Justification ==

A bug has been introduced on mainline by commit
"9ef449c6b31bb6a8e6dedc24de475a3b8c79be20" and this bug affects both
Oneiric and Precise.  There's no upstream fix yet (couldn't even find
similar bug reports), but this will affect all users using the ENE IR
transceiver.

== Fix ==

The bug was introduced by accidentally moving the pnp_port_start()
invocation to a later stage in the device driver probe function,
while the goal was just to move the ISR and the pnp_port_start()
invocation.  This patch fixes this.

== Impact ==

Users with an ENE IR transceiver will not be able to use it without
this fix.

== Test Case ==

Simply try to use the device, for example using a remote control.
