Handling stuck keys

Hi,

What is the preferred way to handle stuck key notification through driver?

I feel the following scenario would work assuming that controller is
able to detect the stuck key and gives us an interrupt.

- Once the interrupt is raised, we go and find out which key is stuck
through regular key scanning logic.
- We find the key which is the vicitim and forcefully send "release"
key event through input_report_key.

I saw other drivers in the input subsystem where people are handling
keyboard quirks with forceful release, so I hope the same should with
stuck keys too.
