"irq_of_parse_and_map(to_of_node(child), 0);" is the first interrupt. A
more common way to express the same thing in modern drivers is
'platform_get_irq(pdev, 0)'.

However, there is one more thing I'm missing: with my suggestion
of emulating edge-triggered interrupts in the irqchip/gpio driver, the
trigger type here should also be 'IRQF_TRIGGER_RISING |
IRQF_TRIGGER_FALLING' in the DT description, so I don't think
we need to change the gpio-keys driver at all, just the gpio driver.
