Do we need to delay landing this patch for a release? I haven't tested
myself, but from re-reading through the code it looks as if
cros_ec_keyb_register_matrix() will return an error code if we have
the device tree patch _without_ commit 4352e23a7ff2 ("Input:
cros-ec-keyb - only register keyboard if rows/columns exist"). That
will cause it to skip registering the buttons/switches, right?
