This is the key on the right side of the function keys, with the
"hamburger menu" icon on it.

"F lock" is a switch between two sets of scancodes for function keys F1-F12
found on some Logitech and Microsoft PS/2 keyboards [1]. When "F lock" is
pressed, then F1-F12 act as function keys and produce usual keyscans for
these keys. When "F lock" is depressed, F1-F12 produced the same keyscans
but prefixed with E0.
Some laptops use [2] E0-prefixed F1-F12 scancodes for non-standard keys.

Move evdev_ev_kbd_event() helper from evdev to kbd.c as otherwise evdev
unconditionally requires all keyboard and console stuff to be compiled
into the kernel. This dependency happens as evdev_ev_kbd_event() helper
references kbdsw global variable defined in kbd.c through use of
kbdd_ioctl() macro.
While here make all keyboard drivers respect evdev_rcpt_mask while setting
typematic rate and LEDs with evdev interface.

Now softc should be retrieved from struct edvev * pointer
with evdev_get_softc() helper.
wmt(4) is a sample of driver that support both KPI.

This is the extra key on 102/105-keys keyboards, located on the right
of the Left Shift key. For instance on a French layout, this is the '<'
key.
This fixes an issue where the key fires no evdev event and thus remains
inactive in an evdev/libinput-enabled X.Org server. The issue only
occurred on an AT keyboard; the same key on a USB keyboard worked fine.

There was report of stable/11 build failure on older versions of
FreeBSD. The problem was a reference to static variable in inline
function. Although fairly recent versions of clang can cope with this
situation just fine there is no strict requirement to make functions
in question inline, they're not in any time-critical codepath. So to
keep HEAD and 11-STABLE buildable on older FreeBSDs some of the util
functions were converted from inline to normal.

Add wrappers around generic evdev_push_event for specific event types:
EV_KEY/EV_REL/EV_ABS etc...
Submitted by: Vladimir Kondratiev <wulf@cicgroup.ru>
evdev is a generic input event interface compatible with Linux
evdev API at ioctl level. It allows using unmodified (apart from
header name) input evdev drivers in Xorg, Wayland, Qt.
This commit has only generic kernel API. evdev support for individual
hardware drivers like ukbd, ums, atkbd, etc. will be committed later.
Project was started by Jakub Klama as part of GSoC 2014. Jakub's
evdev implementation was later used as a base, updated and finished
by Vladimir Kondratiev.
