This driver adds support for USB VoIP phones using the CM109 chipset,
such as Komunikate KIP-1000 and Genius G-talk. Keypad is scanned and
events are reported to the input subsystem. The buzzer can be activated
by sending SND_TONE or SND_BELL to the input device. The phone keymap
can be selected in run-time by using the "phone" module parameter.
The driver has been tested with linux 2.6.24 on i386, and also tested
to build cleanly on AMD64.
More testing and code review is welcome..

For a long time I was sitting on the patch not sure what to do about
the pound key, but I think we need to allocate separate keycodes for
remote controls and phones that work regardless of users keymap.

do you think we could add a new KEY_KPPOUND to include/linux/input.h ?

I just had a quick look in latest git, but could not find anything..
do you want me to define a key and make a patch for you?

BTW, for now I have defined a work-around in my cm109 driver:

#ifndef KEY_KPPOUND
#define KEY_KPPOUND (KEY_LEFTSHIFT | KEY_3 << 8)
#endif

that hack was "copied" from drivers/input/misc/yealink.c

         case 0x32: return KEY_LEFTSHIFT |
                           KEY_3 << 8;   /*   #          */
