This is simple dumb question.... Why does syscons not use the key_lock
flag bit so that the console keyboard can be "locked"?

It looks like the ioctl function that returns syscons status knows
about the keyboard_lock flag.

The code to add this should be simple, just adding two lines to test
the keylock flag in the keyboard status register, and returning 0
if it is set.
