Subject: [PATCH] media: rc: mceusb: add support for 04eb:e033

This is a Sonix SN8P2202XG microcontroller with firmware compatible with
the already supported Northstar 04eb:e004, implementing an MCE IR receiver
(PCB seems to be tracked for a transmitter too but missing related parts)

Found in a Skintek SK-CR-IN+IR ( http://www.skintek.it/SK-CR-IN+IR.php )
internal 3.5 inch USB card reader and MCE receiver combo
(implemented by, and wired as, separate USB devices)
PCB marking: AU6475 966816 STIR REV:A02 MCE

Hello everyone, yesterday I've bought this MCE IR receiver "for VISTA!"
from 2008 and it didn't work (not recognized by LIRC);
luckily adding its VID:PID to the driver was enough for it to work:

# sudo mode2
Using driver devinput on device auto
Trying device: /dev/input/event15
Using device: /dev/input/event15
Running as regular user riki
code: 0xad0ec96900000000f3c1030000000000040004000d740f80
code: 0xad0ec96900000000f3c10300000000000000000000000000

This is my first use of git patches, which I've "learnt" on 
http://docs.kernel.org/process/submitting-patches.html using
git://linuxtv.org/media.git as a base, so apologies for any style issues!
Greetings from Italy
