Marco, I can see it applies on 4.15 but it's not applying on platform-drivers-x86/testing.  
It's most likely this commit you need to rebase on top of:

commit 1c3fdf125ef416227e43fdedf6b5097c41e8c467

    platform/x86: intel-vbtn: Simplify autorelease logic
    
    The new notify_handler logic determining if autorelease should be used or
    not is a bit awkward, and can result in more than one call to
    sparse_keymap_report_event for the same event (scancode). The nesting
    and long lines also made it difficult to read.
    
    Simplify the logic by eliminating a level of nesting with a goto and
    always calculate autorelease and val so we can make a single call to
    sparse_keymap_report_event.
