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.

In speakup_init, we have the following:
if (quiet_boot)
spk_shut_up |= 0x01;
And in spk_types.h:
This patch moves the statement in speakup_init so that
speakup_console[vc->vc_num] is guaranteed to be allocated when it
executes.

It was pointed out by 'make versioncheck' that some includes of
linux/version.h are not needed in drivers/staging/speakup/.
This patch removes them.

We still leaked many resources when Speakup failed to initialize.
Examples of leaked resources include:
/dev/synth, keyboard or VT notifiers, and heap-allocated st_spk_t
structs.
This is fixed.
* We now use PTR_ERR to detect kthread_create failure
(thank you Dan Carpenter).
* The loop which frees members of the speakup_console array now iterates
over the whole array, not stopping at the first NULL value. Fixes
a possible memory leak. Safe because kfree(NULL) is a no-op.
* The order of some initializations was changed. The safe ones, which
will never fail, are performed first.

fix the failure handling in kobjects and the main function so that we
release the virtual keyboard if we exit due to another failure.

The vc_data structure changed to move the tty structure off to the port,
so change the code to handle this. Now the code will build properly,
and hopefully work as well.
