[PATCH V2 3/3] input: Default to only using PNP for i8042 probing on x86

From: Matthew Garrett
Date: Mon May 17 2010 - 11:39:40 EST


Experimenting with Windows has revealed that it will not probe the
keyboard controller unless a valid PNPACPI device is present. Change our
behaviour to match - users can override by using the existing
i8042.nopnp=1 parameter.
