Technically, yes, but at least my patch is an improvement over what exists right now: at first read of your sentence I thought "of course not! keyboard.c does it for all devices!", so it's not a regression in that concern. On the contrary, it fixes the problem of proper caps lock with led feedback. Being able to assign only some of the devices to the linux console would indeed probably be good, but to me it's just a refinement. Users a priori assume all keyboards get their leds updated, so my patch makes sense. And it won't prevent a further patch that, in addition to input::<led> leds, adds per-device leds, which the user could use instead of input::<led>.
