Oh, I see. This is very clever, but a bit too clever. You have no
guarantee, that sparse_keymap_entry_from_scancode will give you a pointer
to *your* key_entry. In fact, it doesn't.
In sparse_keymap_setup (drivers/input/sparse-keymap.c), the keymap
array(msi_wmi_keymap) is mempcy-ed, at line 187 (kernel ~3.7). So if you
want to use this method, you might need to re-compute the index by
iterating over the elements and comparing key->code for each.
