So the "twice the events" stuff did happen before, and is caused by
gpio-keys always fabricating timer-based auto-"up" events when using
"interrupts" instead of "gpios".

arch/arm/boot/dts/r7s72100-rskrza1.dts has IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_BOTH to
detect the real "up", which becomes a second set of "down"/"up" events.
Using IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_FALLING gets rid of the dupe by only detecting
the real "down" event.  Similar for IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_LOW, but then
there's a temporary interrupt storm until the key is released.

Seems like gpio-keys needs to be fixed for IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_BOTH.
When using "gpios" instead of "interrupts", it does pass
IRQF_TRIGGER_RISING | IRQF_TRIGGER_FALLING, and handles that case
correctly.

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,
