Hmm... google/linux lists this as the first entry in a search for 2.6.16
atkbd, the -r1 shortlog (as posted on LWN, this is an excerpt of the
entries for this single guy):
Dmitry Torokhov:
Input: i8042 - disable MUX mode for Sharp MM20
Input: i8042 - convert to the new platform device interface
Input: atkbd - don't lose keymap settings when reconnecting keyboard
Input: HID - fix an oops in PID initialization code
Input: HID - add more simulation usages
The i8042 is a dependency activated by atkbd, and of course the whole
thing is part of the Human Interface Driver interface, so there's a very
good chance one of those entries is the culprit.
