Hi Dmitry,

Comments inline.  I still have an issue with vendor prefix as there are 
not documented guidelines I can find in this area?

I don't understand your question. Could you elaborate?
But, looking at this closer this determines when the hardware should 
generate interrupts.  I think we would always need to set it to both 
edges and this binding option can probably we removed?

I see examples with and without vendor-prefix.
qcom,pm8xxx-keypad.txt does not have prefixes
st-keyscan.txt does have a prefix

I can't find any documented guidelines for this.
Clash changes should not happen because as new standard properties are 
added the drivers should be adjusted to use the new dt-bindings?

Yes, we moved to matrix-keymap and forgot to update this documentation. 
  Will correct - thanks.
