And still you are using only one GPIO in your driver? While WPCE775x
does seem to have matrix keypad support I think that you are using one
of the 3 PS/2 ports, like your touchpad does.

The device is initialized with 0xf4; the device is supposed to respond
with 0xfa; I wonder what scancodes the device reports... It smells
strongly of PS/2.

Also, it is not controller that supports PS/2 commands but rather the
device itself so I am still hopeful that we could make use of the
standard drivers.

Wan, you worked at Nuvoton, do you know if wpce775 fully supports PS/2
interface?
