Re: [PATCH -ac] Panicking in morse code v3

[Andrew Rodland]

Once more Mr. unnamed sent me some suggestions, and once more I've
merged [my own adaptation of] them in. Also, I took an attempt to make
it somewhat more platform-independent, and re-organize. The original
panic_blink was in pc_keyb.c, and was guarded by an #ifdef __i386__ .
v3 moves the generic code out of pc_keyb (and into panic.c). It should
be able to blink on anything that uses pc_keyb (i386, some ARM, and
some MIPS, apparently), and should be able to beep on anything that
defines kd_mksound to do something (currently only i386). Also the code
has been reorganized so as to be easier to read and follow, and there
are a few more punctuation characters.

Yes, I actually _am_ trying to turn this into something useful.
Now, I don't have a 2.5 tree, and probably wouldn't understand it if I
did, but I get a feeling that this won't be so incredibly easy to port,
thanks to having everything use the input layer. Or am I wrong?
