It should be the same text face if you use a command like @code in it,
or you could use @kbd itself in its definition.

​From my .pdf reader, it looks like @kbd and @code use slightly different faces.  If that is the case, then we don't yet have a macro that would work.  There is a note in texinfo.tex that says: "@kbd uses slanted tty font always"​ if that is relevant.

Based on the following four lines from texinfo.tex:

\gdef\markupsetcodequoteleft{\let`\codequoteleft}

\gdef\markupsetcodequoteright{\let'\codequoteright}

\let\markupsetuplqkbd     \markupsetcodequoteleft

\let\markupsetuprqkbd     \markupsetcodequoteright

it looks like if we could just specify a different left and right quote for @kbd, that that would do it.  But these lines are connected to the codequote{left,right} definitions which are a bit more complex, so I'm not sure how to adapt these.
