However, I suppose if we were to change the structure of the pdata to be:

struct tegra_kbc_pin_cfg {
    bool is_row;
    u8 row_col_id;
    u8 pin_id;
};

Then struct tegra_kbc_platform_data could indeed have a pointer to a
variable-sized array of these, which would avoid the "en" member.
How about we change bool to enum instead, like in the patch below?

I'd rather PIN_CFG_IGNORE was the first enum, so it gets value 0, or this
probably won't solve the original issue?
The benefit of current definition is that it is compatible with old
ones using bool...
There are no in-tree users of this type yet, so compatibility isn't
really an issue. And if we don't make that change, anyone who does start
to use it is going to have to initialize every element of the array even
when they aren't used.
