I like how you worked this one out! Its way cleaner and simpler.

Nice!

I believe the interrupt trigger should be switched to IRQF_TRIGGER_HIGH
combined with IRQF_ONESHOT, for this new setup. This is causing a race
condition.

In the previous situation a 'key data' read was triggered by
ht16k33_keypad_start(). This cleared the IRQ and gave a (somewhat racy)
known state. Now, when the IRQ line is HIGH during probe keyscan
wont work. 

Also, when ht16k33_keypad_stop() is run while the irq thread is waiting
for debounce, the scan will be skipped and irq will never be cleared.
This also breaks keyscan.

Regards,
Robin
