Since the last field in key_entry is a union, the braces seem to be
required.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, do you think the
following implementation of the API is acceptable for the driver. Since
I couldn't find a driver for any similar device using the API in this
manner.

inside seesaw_probe():

err = sparse_keymap_setup(seesaw->input_dev, seesaw_buttons_new, NULL);
if (err) {
	dev_err(&client->dev,
		"failed to set up input device keymap: %d\n", err);
	return err;
}

inside seesaw_poll():

for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(seesaw_buttons_new); i++) {
	if (!sparse_keymap_report_event(
		input, seesaw_buttons_new[i].code,
		data.button_state & BIT(seesaw_buttons_new[i].code),
		false)) {
		dev_err_ratelimited(
			&input->dev,
			"failed to report event for keycode: %d",
			seesaw_buttons_new[i].keycode);
		return;
	}
}
