commit 157a4b311c45c9aba75a990464d9680867dc8805 upstream.

There are three call sites for this function, and all three
are called within a keyboard handler.
kbd_event_lock is already held within keyboard handlers,
so attempting to lock it in vt_get_leds causes deadlock.

3.4-rc introduced a regression when setting the LEDS. We do the right thing
but then return an error code.

<title>vt: Fix deadlock on scroll-lock</title>

Fixing the locking accidentally replaced a race in the scroll
lock handling with a deadlock. Turn it back into a race for
now.

The basic problem is that there are two paths into the tty
stop/start helpers. One via the tty layer ^S/^Q handling
where we need to take the kbd_event_lock and one via the
special keyboard handler for fn_hold where we already hold
it. Probably we need to split out into a separate LED lock
but for now just go back to the race as it's a bit close
to release.

We forgot to set the "key_map" variable here, so it's still NULL.  This
was introduced recently in 079c9534a9 "vt:tackle kbd_table".

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.

First step to debletcherising the vt console layer - pick a victim and fix
the locking

This is a nice simple object with its own rules so lets pick it out for
treatment. The user of the table already has a lock so we will also use the
same lock for updates.
