Title:
  lirc_wpc8769l is not being built due to a compile error

Status in linux-lts-xenial package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  A compile error is preventing the lirc_wpc8769.ko kernel module from
  being built in ubuntu 12.04. This hardware is necessary to support
  WEC1020 Winbond CIR Transceiver hardware.

  Basically - the methods generic_find_next_le_bit and
  generic_find_next_zero_le_bit have been deprecated.

  All instances of generic_find_next_le_bit  need to be replaced by
  find_next_bit_le,

  and all instances of generic_find_next_zero_le_bit need to be replaced
  by find_next_zero_bit_le.

  Once this is corrected the kernel module will build correctly and
  hardware using this module will become usable again.
