You wrote pretty long message explaining how the device works, but I
still do not see the answer to questions - why it cannot be part of
matrix keypad?

"It looks like this driver has smaller number of features than
matrix-keypad, so it should be integrated into the matrix-keypad.
matrix-keypad features are superset to this one."

"But anyway this should be just merged into matrix-keypad. It's a
simpler set of that binding."

Krzysztof
