It should be the protocol that the last scancode was received with. This
code path is very broken; it calls:

	rc_keydown(d->rc_dev, protocol, keycode, toggle);

But keycode in this codepath is never set. Luckily keycode is declared as:

	u32 uninitialized_var(keycode);

I've got another patch for this which I'll send as a reply to this.
