Bug description:
  [SRU Justification]
  On ppc64el, console keyboard maps will not be set at boot time because of a bug in detecting which VT is "safe" to use for setting the map.  This problem does not affect amd64 purely by chance, or because of which toolchain version or toolchain options were used to build the binary on each architecture; a rebuild of the kbd package could also introduce the problem on amd64.

  [Test case]
  1. On ppc64el, run 'sudo loadkeys /etc/console-setup/cached.kmap.gz'
  2. Confirm that you are shown an error, "Couldn't get a file descriptor referring to the console".
  3. Install the kbd package from xenial-proposed.
  4. Run 'sudo loadkeys /etc/console-setup/cached.kmap.gz' again.
  5. Confirm that no error message is shown and the command exits with staus 0.
  6. Repeat steps 3-6 on amd64.

  [Regression potential]
  Since keymap settings are currently not being applied on ppc64el, it's possible that someone who has configured a non-default keymap on a ppc64el system will be surprised after upgrade that their keymap has changed.

  Seeing the following error message in the Ubuntu dmesg log following
  IPL to Ubuntu on system with Ubuntu 16.04.1 installed:

  # dmesg -T --level=alert,crit,err
  [Tue Aug 23 09:20:12 2016] systemd[1]: Failed to start Set console keymap.

  This appears to be something that can be ignored so manufacturing will
  be ignoring this message until directed otherwise.

  We collected the data again. kern.log doesn't have any logs that
  related to the dmesg error

  The error can be recreated by doing a cold boot, it won't recreate
  with a reboot.
