Looks good to me, too. I have yet to test, but at least the gpio_direction call
is mandatory as per gpio api docs, so this fixes an actual bug.
gpio_request is optional and claims the GPIO for this driver's use
only (on architectures where
this is supported), so I'm not sure if this is really needed, but it
shouldn't harm any of the current users of gpio-keys.
