Keyboard struct lifetime is easy, but the locking is not and is completely
ignored by the existing code. Tackle this one head on

- Make the kbd_table private so we can run down all direct users
- Hoick the relevant ioctl handlers into the keyboard layer
- Lock them with the keyboard lock so they don't change mid keypress
- Add helpers for things like console stop/start so we isolate the poking
  around properly
- Tweak the braille console so it still builds

There are a couple of FIXME locking cases left for ioctls that are so hideous
they should be addressed in a later patch. After this patch the kbd_table is
private and all the keyboard jiggery pokery is in one place.

This update fixes speakup and also a memory leak in the original.

module_param(bool) used to counter-intuitively take an int.  In
fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy
trick.

It's time to remove the int/unsigned int option.  For this version
it'll simply give a warning, but it'll break next kernel version.

kbuild.h forces include of autoconf.h on the
commandline using -include - so we do not need to
include the file explicit.

Only register the braille driver VT and keyboard notifiers when the
braille console is used.  Avoids eating insert or backspace keys.

This adds a minimalistic braille screen reader support.  This is meant to
be used by blind people e.g.  on boot failures or when / cannot be mounted
etc and thus the userland screen readers can not work.
