-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Daniel Drake <[email protected]>
This patch combines commit 0b360adbdb54d5b98b78d57ba0916bc4b8871968 (make
setkeys root-only) and commit e3f17f0f6e98f58edb13cb38810d93e6d4808e68 (only
disallow setting by users)
Because people can play games reprogramming keys and leaving traps for the
next user of the console.
