[bug #62047] The keystatus command fails on certain EFI hardware

[Dave Pickens]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #62047 (project grub):


[comment #0 original submission:]
> A cfg script uses the keystatus --shift command against a kernel generated
using grub-2.06-for-windows. The command always returns true even if the shift
key is not depressed.
> 
> This seems to be somewhat hardware dependent. The command works properly on
some machines.
> 
> The failure occurs on a a Dell Inspiron 14 2-in-1 notebook running in EFI
firmware mode and may also happen on other machines.

Note: The keystatus command with no options also returns true, indicating that
the command is supported on the platform.
