From: David Brownell <dbrownell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Convert the dm355evm keys driver to use IRQ threading instead of a private workqueue. IRQ threads were added to Linux after this driver was written, and in this case fit what the driver needs. (Although the non-shared thread costs more runtime memory.)
