>Description:
If keyboard is not attached while booting, it is not detected if
attached later. The keyboard blinks at the same time on all three
leds one time, but is not functional after. Only a reset (soft or hard)
does bring the keyboard back.

boot -v output (if keyboard is connected at boottime) :

atkbdc0: <keyboard controller> (i8042)> at port 0x60-0x6f on isa0
atkbd0: <AT Keyboard> irq 1 on atkdbc0
atkdb: the current kbd controller commend byte 0067
atkdb: keyboard ID 0x41ab (2)
kbdc: RESET_KBD return code:00fa
kbdc:  RESET_KBD return code:00aa
kdb0: atkdb0, AT 101/102 (2), config:0x0, flags:0x3d0000

>How-To-Repeat:
Remove the keyboard. Turn on the computer and boot FreeBSD. After the
machine is up, attach the keyboard.
