But who's working on it?  :)

Sketch of solution:

 - twl4030.h defines keypad platform_data

 - add_children() adds a platform device for keypad,
   and passes that platform_data

 - twl4030 keypad driver switches to platform_bus
   and uses that platform_data

 - board-specific init code provides the relevant
   platform_data (or none)

I'll do the GPIO code, which will be a slightly more
interesting example than the RTC.
