I believe this comment has been a bit outdated by our discussion on
using GPIO valid mask, but I believe we could not use the ->set_config()
callback here: this callback is made to configure a single pin while the
gpos/keypad columns repartition is global.

Ok, this is a bit more clear to me now. So I came up with something, it
will be part of the next iteration, probably during the next week.

This required to add a few additional fields to the gpio_regmap_config
structure, specifying the IRQ configuration:

+ * @regmap_irq_chip:   (Optional) Pointer on an regmap_irq_chip structure. If
+ *                     set, a regmap-irq device will be created and the IRQ
+ *                     domain will be set accordingly.
+ * @regmap_irq_chip_data: (Optional) Pointer on an regmap_irq_chip_data
+ *                      structure pointer. If set, it will be populated with a
+ *                      pointer on allocated regmap_irq data.
+ * @regmap_irq_irqno   (Optional) The IRQ the device uses to signal interrupts.
+ * @regmap_irq_flags   (Optional) The IRQF_ flags to use for the interrupt.

So as I reworked the keypad columns GPIOs, PORT GPIOs and the COL GPIOs
are a bit more similar on this point. So far I now use a constant value
assigned in the driver for both, as I believe there is no way the number
of GPIOs could be a different. Yet I can easily switch back to a value
provided by a device property.

Thanks again for your review.
