I'm not saying they are in the wrong order, I'm just asking. Who wrote
the patch? Has it changed since?

That sounds more generic, but if it's not documented as such, then
please consider doing so.

So st,stix-keypad, or st,sti4x-keypad?

I'm just thinking about future proofing the architecture. What if ST
released stj which has a different keypad IP?

That's not quite what I meant, I mean can't ST_KEY_MAXKEYS be more
dynamic and be obtained from (keypad,num-rows * keypad,num-columns)?
