Multibutton ECI headset support using GPIO was planned during early in
HW design phase but wasn't implemented for the actual product. I don't
remember was it due no actual product requirement for it or GPIO based
implementation was not reliable. If I remember correctly ECI protocol
carries information by shorting mic bias to ground at some 1 kHz rate so
trying to detect those pulses by SW won't work too well without hard
real-time OS.
Even ECI is not implemented in final product the production HW still has
two switches to route mic bias to voltage detection circuit, tv-out or
codec. One of the switches is statically driven because only codec or
tv-out route is needed. See commit 31164c7cf119 ("ASoC: omap: rx51: Add
headset support")

My vague memory doesn't tell how basic button press detection was
implemented in Maemo kernel. Was it codec, same voltage detection
circuit than ECI or some another GPIO? I don't even remember did we
implement it for the MeeGo N900 developer edition :-(
