Very nice, thanks for this patch!  Looking good to me, with a few

Frankly, "phone keys" sounds a bit strange to me, maybe because there
are also tablets that have the same style of reduced-set keys.  Thus,
I'd suggest that the following language is used:

- "BUTTON_REMAP_PHONE_KEYS" instead of "BUTTON_REMAP_REDUCED_KEYS"
- "reduced smartphone-style keys" instead of "phone keys"

Using "reduced" would also allow us to have this remapping logic more
easily extended to also cover some other buttons found on some other
devices with reduced-set keys.

Pretty much the same suggestion as above applies here.
