The SAMSUNG_DEV_KEYPAD is not selected for device tree enabled
machine. For instance, the Kconfig section for Exynos4 dt-enabled
machine file is as below.

config MACH_EXYNOS4_DT
        bool "Samsung Exynos4 Machine using device tree"
        select CPU_EXYNOS4210
        select USE_OF
        select HAVE_SAMSUNG_KEYPAD if INPUT_KEYBOARD
        help
          Machine support for Samsung Exynos4 machine with device tree enabled.

SAMSUNG_DEV_KEYPAD (that selects the static platform device for
keypad) should not be selected for MACH_EXYNOS4_DT config option. So
selecting HAVE_SAMSUNG_KEYPAD in SAMSUNG_DEV_KEYPAD config option
would not help in this case. So for now, this is kept unchanged.
Please let me know if you think this needs to be changed.

Thanks for your review. I am sorry for delayed reply to your email.

Regards,
Thomas.
