+Device-Tree bindings for GPIO IR receiver
+
+Required properties:
+	- compatible: should be "gpio-ir-receiver".
+	- gpios: specifies GPIO used for IR signal reception.
+
+Optional properties:
+	- linux,rc-map-name: Linux specific remote control map name.
+
+Example node:
+
+	ir: ir-receiver {
+		compatible = "gpio-ir-receiver";
+		gpios = <&gpio0 19 1>;
+		linux,rc-map-name = "rc-rc6-mce";
+	};
