+- compatible:		Should be "gpio-matix-keypad"
There's a typo there.

Given that compatible value, shouldn't the file be named
gpio-matrix-keypad.txt then?
Stephen,

Thanks for the comments.

I agree and I have same thing in my mind but the driver name
is matrix-keypad.c. And I think we have to change the driver
file names as well. (drivers/../matrix_keypad.c, linux/input/
matrix_keypad.h).
I don't think there's any requirement that the Linux driver source
filename needs to match the DT binding compatible value in any way.
Given the bindings are OS-agnostic, naming the binding file based on the
compatible value seems better than naming the binding based on the Linux
driver name when there's a discrepancy. I see you've renamed the file in
V3, so everything's fine.
