lirc_zilog isn't broken, you're probably supplying a module option to
it that is no longer valid. Look at dmesg output just after trying to
load it. Best guess: you've got disable_rx=1 set somewhere, and its
no longer valid, the parameter name is now tx_only. This was part of
a larger lirc_zilog cleanup to make it less racy and actually unloadable
without nuking your system...
