Input: sysrq - DT binding for key sequence

Adding a simple device tree binding for the specification of key
sequences. Definition of the keys found in the sequence are located in
'include/uapi/linux/input.h'.

For the sysrq driver, holding the sequence of keys down for a specific
amount of time will reset the system.

Input: sysrq reset sequence
A simple binding to represent a set of keys as described in
include/uapi/linux/input.h. This is to communicate a sequence of keys to the
sysrq driver. Upon holding the keys for a specified amount of time (if
specified) the system is sync'ed and reset.
Key sequences are global to the system but all the keys in a set must be coming
from the same input device.
The /chosen node should contain a 'linux,sysrq-reset-seq' child node to define
a set of keys.
Required property:
sysrq-reset-seq: array of Linux keycodes, one keycode per cell.
Optional property:
timeout-ms: duration keys must be pressed together in milliseconds before
generating a sysrq. If omitted the system is rebooted immediately when a valid
sequence has been recognized.
Example:
chosen {
linux,sysrq-reset-seq {
keyset = <0x03
0x04
0x0a>;
timeout-ms = <3000>;
};
};
Would represent KEY_2, KEY_3 and KEY_9.
