Hi Dmitry,

Comments inline. I still have an issue with vendor prefix as there are not documented guidelines I can find in this area?

+* Broadcom Keypad Controller device tree bindings
+
+Broadcom Keypad controller is used to interface a SoC with a matrix-type
+keypad device. The keypad controller supports multiple row and column lines.
+A key can be placed at each intersection of a unique row and a unique column.
+The keypad controller can sense a key-press and key-release and report the
+event using a interrupt to the cpu.
+
+This binding is based on the matrix-keymap binding with the following
+changes:
+
+keypad,num-rows and keypad,num-columns are required.
+
+Required SoC Specific Properties:
+- compatible: should be "brcm,bcm-keypad"
+
+- reg: physical base address of the controller and length of memory mapped
+ region.
+
+- interrupts: The interrupt number to the cpu.
+
+Board Specific Properties:
+- keypad,num-rows: Number of row lines connected to the keypad
+ controller.
+
+- keypad,num-columns: Number of column lines connected to the
+ keypad controller.
+
+- key-interrupt-trigger-type: The type of interrupt trigger asociated with the Keypad matrix.
+
+ KEYPAD_INTERRUPT_NO_TRIGGER = 0
+ KEYPAD_INTERRUPT_RISING_EDGE = 1
+ KEYPAD_INTERRUPT_FALLING_EDGE = 2
+ KEYPAD_INTERRUPT_BOTH_EDGES = 3

Can we get this data from the interrupt spec?
I don't understand your question. Could you elaborate?
But, looking at this closer this determines when the hardware should generate interrupts. I think we would always need to set it to both edges and this binding option can probably we removed?

+
+- col-debounce-filter-period: The debounce period for the Column filter.
+
+ KEYPAD_DEBOUNCE_1_ms = 0
+ KEYPAD_DEBOUNCE_2_ms = 1
+ KEYPAD_DEBOUNCE_4_ms = 2
+ KEYPAD_DEBOUNCE_8_ms = 3

+ KEYPAD_DEBOUNCE_16_ms = 4
+ KEYPAD_DEBOUNCE_32_ms = 5
+ KEYPAD_DEBOUNCE_64_ms = 6
+ KEYPAD_DEBOUNCE_128_ms = 7
+
+- status-debounce-filter-period: The debounce period for the Status filter.
+
+ KEYPAD_DEBOUNCE_1_ms = 0
+ KEYPAD_DEBOUNCE_2_ms = 1
+ KEYPAD_DEBOUNCE_4_ms = 2
+ KEYPAD_DEBOUNCE_8_ms = 3
+ KEYPAD_DEBOUNCE_16_ms = 4
+ KEYPAD_DEBOUNCE_32_ms = 5
+ KEYPAD_DEBOUNCE_64_ms = 6
+ KEYPAD_DEBOUNCE_128_ms = 7

I could swear device-specific properties should be in form of
<vendor-prefix>,<property-name> to ensure it won't clash with changes on
subsystem level later on. Device-tree folks, what say you?
I see examples with and without vendor-prefix.
qcom,pm8xxx-keypad.txt does not have prefixes
st-keyscan.txt does have a prefix

I can't find any documented guidelines for this.
Clash changes should not happen because as new standard properties are added the drivers should be adjusted to use the new dt-bindings?

+
+- row-output-enabled: An optional property indicating whether the row or
+ column is being used as output. If specified the row is being used
+ as the output. Else defaults to column.
+
+- pull-up-enabled: An optional property indicating the Keypad scan mode.
+ If specified implies the keypad scan pull-up has been enabled.
+
+- Keys represented as child nodes: Each key connected to the keypad
+ controller is represented as a child node to the keypad controller
+ device node and should include the following properties.
+ - row: the row number to which the key is connected.
+ - column: the column number to which the key is connected.
+ - code: the key-code to be reported when the key is pressed
+ and released.

That does not seem to be right, linux,keymap is a list, not a subtree.
I'd simply refer to
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/input/matrix-keymap.txt for details.
Yes, we moved to matrix-keymap and forgot to update this documentation. Will correct - thanks.

+Example:
+#include "dt-bindings/input/input.h"
+
+/ {
+ keypad: keypad@180ac000 {
+ /* Required SoC specific properties */
+ compatible = "brcm,bcm-keypad";
+
+ /* Required Board specific properties */
+ keypad,num-rows = <5>;
+ keypad,num-columns = <5>;
+ status = "okay";
