Okay. Could you please file a bug on the kernel, stating exactly what
happens, your exact hardware (cat /proc/bus/input/devices, dmesg, lsusb,
maybe even lshal), giving the evtest log, and describing the problem --
key down events need a faked key release? It's the kernel's job to give
us sensible output: we can't tell the difference between a key that's
being held down and a key which doesn't generate release events.
