Please, check the include blocks to follow IWYU principle.

Just provide dem_tm16xx_probe() and drop this.

Why an array out of a sudden? Previous function coped with just a single structure.

For cases of char / u8 the sizeof() is fine.

Ditto.

At least these ones
drivers/iio/adc/mcp320x.c:158:          *val = (adc->rx_buf[0] << 4 | adc->rx_buf[1] >> 4);
drivers/mtd/tests/nandbiterrs.c:83:     c = (c & 0x0F) << 4 | (c & 0xF0) >> 4;
drivers/usb/atm/ueagle-atm.c:2072:      sc->ovl = intr->e1_bOvl >> 4 | intr->e1_bOvl << 4;

use the same code (and I believe more, but that needs a bit more sophisticated `grep`).

Perhaps make it a part of include/linux/swab.h

as

static inline void swab_nibbles(u8 *buf, unsigned int words)
{
	...
}

in a separate patch?

	return tm16xx_i2c_write(display, &cmd, 1);

Hmm... Maybe


	if (keycode == 0xFF)
		return 0;

?

Also you use 0xFF magic several times. If it's the same semantically, define it
with name and use everywhere, if it's different we need either comments or a
few definitions for each semantically different case.
