/* Function my_timer_func blinks the keyboard LEDs periodically by invoking
 * command KDSETLED of ioctl() on the keyboard driver. To learn more on virtual
 * terminal ioctl operations, please see file:
 *   drivers/tty/vt/vt_ioctl.c, function vt_ioctl().
 *
 * The argument to KDSETLED is alternatively set to 7 (thus causing the led
 * mode to be set to LED_SHOW_IOCTL, and all the leds are lit) and to 0xFF
 * (any value above 7 switches back the led mode to LED_SHOW_FLAGS, thus
 * the LEDs reflect the actual keyboard status).  To learn more on this,
 * please see file: drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c, function setledstate().
