[media] IR: plug races in IR raw thread
Unfortunelly (my fault) the kernel thread that now handles IR processing
has classical races in regard to wakeup and stop.
This patch hopefully closes them all.
Tested with module reload running in a loop, while receiver is blasted
with IR data for 10 minutes.
