Subject: [PATCH v2] Input: tegra-kbc - add ghost key filter.

From: Rakesh Iyer <riyer@...dia.com>

Add ghost key filtering support for the Nvidia Tegra matrix keyboard.

Signed-off-by: Rakesh Iyer <riyer@...dia.com>

v2: Incorporated Henrik Rydberg's suggestions.
v1: Do not report keypresses when matrix keyboard encounters key ghosting.
