I also do not have a Dell machine that makes use of this driver, but my
understanding is that calling sparse_keymap_report_event() with
autorelease set to true makes release events irrelevant and simplifies
implementation.  Though each release event still needs a KE_IGNORE entry
in the keymap so that superfluous KEY_UNKNOWN events are suppressed.
