 * GPIO driven matrix keypad device tree bindings
 
 GPIO driven matrix keypad is used to interface a SoC with a matrix keypad.
+
+Generic mode:
 The matrix keypad supports multiple row and column lines, a key can be
 placed at each intersection of a unique row and a unique column. The matrix
 keypad can sense a key-press and key-release by means of GPIO lines and
 report the event using GPIO interrupts to the cpu.
 
+Reduced mode:
+The reduced matric keypad supports multiple gpio lines, all gpio lines
+act as row as well as column lines, a key can be placed at each intersection
+of a row number not equal to a column number and they are diagonally
+symmetric.
+
+Example- For 5 gpio lines, possible matrix is 5x5 and maximum possible
+	keys are 10.
+
+	Sample matrix table for 7 buttons and 5 gpio lines
