Good point, thanks. I missed that when I went shopping for an appropriate
KEY_*.

Adjusted patch to apply on top of current HEAD.

A lone FN key press on a Toshiba Portégé R700 without another key in
conjunction results in an ACPI event and a spurious error message on
the console.

Add a key entry to map this event to a KEY_UNKNOWN keypress silences
this message.
