I think none of the twl4030 keypad users are in mainline, so far...

My first reaction to this is that it's a bit incomplete.
It replaces only the KEY() macro in the $SUBJECT patch:

 - There are two more public ones (for board files):
     * KEY_PERSISTENT flags row/column values to ignore
     * PERSISTENT_KEY (sigh) generates a row/col entry
       with such a marking (instead of a keycode)
 - Plus two driver-internal ones:
     * ROWCOL_MASK to strip R/C from KEY()
     * KEYCODE_MASK to stip the keycode from a KEY()

If there is going to be something reusable across the whole
input subsystem (for drivers that don't need fancy stuff),
it should really address the whole problem...
