[PATCH] Xen Keyboard: don't advertise every key known to man



For reasons I still don't understand, the input subsystem allows
input devices to advertise what keys they have, and adds this
information to the modalias for the device.  The Xen Virtual
Keyboard was advertising every known key, which resulted in a
modalias string over 2 KiB in length, which caused uevents to
fail with -ENOMEM ( when trying to add the modalias to the env ).
Remove this advertisement.
