    Please post the full error message. Does the error message always
    contain the same scancode?

    My guess is you can get out of that without a reboot. Next time it
    happens, try this:
       1. Press and release each Ctrl key. (This makes sure the key_down
          array is correct.)
       2. Switch to another console and back again. (This executes the
          compute_shiftstate function, which recalculates the shift
          state from the key_down array.)
