I think this is the wrong thing to do. The semantic of the driver is to
receive an interrupt on both key-press and key-release. It needs both
events to function correctly.
While your patch enables the driver, it also only give it one of the two
expected events, and things will break. You should fix the gpio-keys
driver to only request one of the possible events (possibly detect when
it is failing to configure the interrupt).
Thanks,
M.
