 There is a fix for this bug and it's documented by atkbd(5) in the Driver
 Flags section:
      bit 3 (NO_PROBE_TEST)
            When this option is given, the atkbd driver will not test the
 key-
            board port during the probe routine.  Some machines hang during
            boot when this test is performed.
 However, this doesn't work on my AMD64 laptop computer and I'm currently
 trying to pinpoint the actual problem. (seems to be related to the keyboard
 nonetheless)
