Cover letter [PATCH 0/4] Allow to convert xkb keymap to kernel keymap
This patchset adds the ability to use keymaps from libxkbcommon. It gives the loadkeys utility additional options for passing xkb-specific parameters.
The idea is to make it possible to unify the keymap configuration between linux console and xorg/wayland and unification of the keymaps configuration method.
Unfortunately, we cannot use xkb keymap one to one. The linux kernel has a number of limitations that allow the use of xkb keymaps.
Many thanks to Anton Zinoviev who helped me figure out how console-setup solved the problems of converting xkb to linux keymaps.
