That driver should work on almost any architecture/platform/hardware which supports gpios and is small enough to be a good test candidate. Having had a short look at gpio-keys.c, I think the same problems as with omap_hsmmc would have been occured when someone had tried to use that driver with 3.11-rc2.

I just grep on kernel.org tree and my comment was restricted to what
is current state in mainline for DT. I never said it can't be used or
no board is using it. Sorry if i was not clear enough.
