Re: input: put ledstate in the keyboard notifier

[Samuel Thibault]

Oh, I just noticed that Karl Dahlke's patch to provide the ledstate got
into -mm.  Unfortunately, it is a bit bogus, see patch below, to be
applied on top of Karl's one.

Keyboard notification ledstate fixes.

In keyboard notifications, use kbd->ledflagstate instead of
getledstate() since that's what the keyboard layer is supposed to use.

Update param.ledstate again between key handler call and notifying
KBD_POST_KEYSYM, since key handlers may update the led state.
