Staging: add speakup to the staging directory

Speakup is a kernel based screen review package for the linux operating
system.  It allows blind users to interact with applications on the
linux console by means of synthetic speech.

+This file is intended to give you an overview of the default keys used
+by speakup for it's review functions.  You may change them to be
+anything you want but that will take some familiarity with key
+mapping.
+
+We have remapped the insert or zero key on the keypad to act as a
+shift key.  Well, actually as an altgr key.  So in the following list
+InsKeyPad-period means hold down the insert key like a shift key and
+hit the keypad period.
+
+KeyPad-8		Say current Line
+InsKeyPad-8		say from top of screen to reading cursor.
+KeyPad-7		Say Previous Line (UP one line)
+KeyPad-9		Say Next Line (down one line)
+KeyPad-5		Say Current Word
+InsKeyPad-5		Spell Current Word
+KeyPad-4		Say Previous Word (left one word)
+InsKeyPad-4		say from left edge of line to reading cursor.
+KeyPad-6		Say Next Word (right one word)
+InsKeyPad-6		Say from reading cursor to right edge of line.
+KeyPad-2		Say Current Letter
+InsKeyPad-2		say current letter phonetically
+KeyPad-1		Say Previous Character (left one letter)
+KeyPad-3		Say Next Character (right one letter)
+KeyPad-plus		Say Entire Screen
+InsKeyPad-plus		Say from reading cursor line to bottom of screen.
+KeyPad-Minus		Park reading cursor (toggle)
+InsKeyPad-minus		Say character hex and decimal value.
+KeyPad-period		Say Position (current line, position and console)
+InsKeyPad-period	say colour attributes of current position.
+InsKeyPad-9		Move reading cursor to top of screen (insert pgup)
+InsKeyPad-3		Move reading cursor to bottom of screen (insert pgdn)
+InsKeyPad-7		Move reading cursor to left edge of screen (insert home)
+InsKeyPad-1		Move reading cursor to right edge of screen (insert end)
+ControlKeyPad-1		Move reading cursor to last character on current line.
+KeyPad-Enter		Shut Up (until another key is hit) and sync reading cursor
+InsKeyPad-Enter		Shut Up (until toggled back on).
+InsKeyPad-star n<x|y>	go to line (y) or column (x). Where 'n' is any
+		allowed value for the row or column for your current screen.
+KeyPad-/		Mark and Cut screen region.
+InsKeyPad-/		Paste screen region into any console.
+
+Hitting any key while speakup is outputting speech will quiet the
+synth until it has caught up with what is being printed on the
+console.

+		Dectalk express, Doubletalk, Doubletalk LT or
+		Litetalk, Keynote Gold internal PC, software
+		synthesizers, Speakout, transport, and a dummy module
+		that can be used with a plain text terminal.
+		
+		Speakup can either be built in or compiled as a module
+		by answering y or m.  If you answer y here, then you
+		must answer either y or m to at least one of the
+		synthesizer drivers below.  If you answer m here, then
+		the synthesizer drivers below can only be built as
+		modules.
+		
+		These drivers are not standalone drivers, but must be
+		used in conjunction with Speakup.  Think of them as
+		video cards for blind people.
+		
+		
+		The Dectalk pc driver can only be built as a module, and
+		requires software to be pre-loaded on to the card before
+		the module can be loaded.  See the decpc choice below
+		for more details.
+		
+		If you are not a blind person, or don't have access to
+		one of the listed synthesizers, you should say n.

+Speakup project home:  http://www.linux-speakup.org

+Mailing List:  speakup@braille.uwo.ca
+
+Speakup is a kernel based screen review package for the linux operating
+system.  It allows blind users to interact with applications on the
+linux console by means of synthetic speech.
+
+Currently, speakup has several issues we know of.
+
+The first issue has to do with the way speakup communicates with serial
+ports.  Currently, we communicate directly with the hardware
+ports. This however conflicts with the standard serial port drivers,
+which poses various problems. This is also not working for modern hardware
+such as PCI-based serial ports.  Also, there is not a way we can
+communicate with USB devices.  The current serial port handling code is
+in serialio.c in this directory.
+
+Some places are currently using in_atomic() because speakup functions
+are called in various contexts, and a couple of things can't happen
+in these cases. Pushing work to some worker thread would probably help,
+as was already done for the serial port driving part.
+
+There is a duplication of the selection functions in selections.c. These
+functions should get exported from drivers/char/selection.c (clear_selection
+notably) and used from there instead.
+
+The kobjects may have to move to a more proper place in /sys. The
+discussion on lkml resulted to putting speech synthesizers in the
+"speech" class, and the speakup screen reader itself into
+/sys/class/vtconsole/vtcon0/speakup, the nasty path being handled by
+userland tools.
+
+Another issue seems to only happen on SMP systems.  It seems
+that text in the output buffer gets garbled because a lock is not set.
+This bug happens regularly, but no one has been able to find a situation
+which produces it consistently.
+
+Patches, suggestions, corrections, etc, are definitely welcome.
+
+We prefer that you contact us on the mailing list; however, if you do
+not want to subscribe to a mailing list, send your email to all of the
+following:
