Hi Dmitry,

Thank you for the review!

Sure. I noticed the "linux,code" property so I used that one but I did 
not see the "linux,keycodes". I guess it is possible to group all the 
keycodes using that property.

For what I know, it is not possible. We can only retrieve the number of 
buttons configured for one device but not keycodes.

I am not familiar with HID subsytem but I looked to other HID drivers 
and read the kernel documentation.
In the datasheet, there is no reference to the HID specification and, 
for example, there is no GET/SET_REPORT requests. There is one "HID 
descriptor register" but that is all.

I guess that it is not a HID device but do not hesitate to give me hints 
to look at it, if you want me to confirm it.
