Sorry for not noticing before, but this is not correct.
Drivers using platform_driver_probe() typically don't fill in the
platform_driver.probe
method, as it's passed explicitly to platform_driver_probe() instead.
Hence amikbd_probe() is now referenced nowhere, and thus never called
(doesn't the compiler warn about amikbd_probe() being defined but unused?).

Same here, I think.
