Leaving the fd open means we still get keyboard events after VT switching
away. Coming back, some of these events are replayed on the application that
has the current focus.
Reproduceable:
1. open terminal, focus.
2. VT switch away
3. type something, preferably a password
4. VT switch back, trigger a mouse event
5. Observe the X server guessing your password.
Closing the fd on DEVICE_OFF fixes this. Reopen is handled by the reopen
code introduced with
