Whichever module you actually need *should* still get loaded
automatically.  The change between 4.4 and 4.5 was this:

    [media] media: rc: load decoder modules on-demand
    
    Remove code for unconditional decoder module loading (except lirc).

This removed code that was loading *all* decoder modules.  But the code
to load specific decoder modules is still there.

Could you try this:

1. Create /etc/modprobe.d/rc-core-debug.conf containing the line:
       options rc-core debug=1
2. Reboot
3. Look for more messages from the RC core in the kernel log
