You mean in plat-samsung/dev-keypad.c?
If remove inclusion plat/keypad.h in there, following build error happens.

arch/arm/plat-samsung/dev-keypad.c:41: warning: 'struct samsung_keypad_platdata' declared inside parameter list
arch/arm/plat-samsung/dev-keypad.c:41: warning: its scope is only this definition or declaration, which is probably not what you want
arch/arm/plat-samsung/dev-keypad.c: In function 'samsung_keypad_set_platdata':
arch/arm/plat-samsung/dev-keypad.c:50: error: invalid application of 'sizeof' to incomplete type 'struct samsung_keypad_platdata'

arch/arm/plat-samsung/dev-keypad.c:55: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
arch/arm/plat-samsung/dev-keypad.c:55: error: 'samsung_keypad_cfg_gpio' undeclared (first use in this function)
arch/arm/plat-samsung/dev-keypad.c:55: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
arch/arm/plat-samsung/dev-keypad.c:55: error: for each function it appears in.)
make[1]: *** [arch/arm/plat-samsung/dev-keypad.o] Error 1

As you know, released 35 today. So we have no much time for this merge window.
