Sorry for not understanding the context here.How the debounce sysfs
added by Guenter has anything to do with switch driver in android?

AFAIK android just uses switch driver api to talk to driver to get the
status of the headset and the status of the keys if headset has any.This
API in turn updates the sysfs to let userspace know the status change
using kobject uevent.
 
Switch driver is replaced by extcon in the mainline.
