[IRDA]: smcinit merged into smsc-ircc driver

This patch integrates the smcinit code into the smsc-ircc driver.
Some laptops have their smsc-ircc chip not properly configured by the
BIOS and needs some preconfiguration. Currently, this can be done from
userspace with smcinit, a utility that comes with the irda-utils
package. It messes with ioports and PCI settings, from userspace.  Now
with this patch, if we happen to be on one of the known to be faulty
laptops, we preconfigure the chip from the driver.
