From: Samuel Thibault <samuel.thibault@xxxxxxxxxxxx> 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.
