bypass the 8042 test..

Trying to install FreeBSD any version greater 5.0, on an OLD HP pavilion zv=
XXXX
series, with both AMD or INTEL P2 the machine HANGS or POWER OFF.

This is a problem with the keyboard controller that the test routine in the
FreeBSD kernel tests for the presence of controller CHIP.

a patch that does not test for the controller solve the problem , Perhaps a
flag in the HINTS, should be implemented, because for, sure there are other=
 ILL
fated notebooks around.

I bought a quite new ZV5000 P4 for $30 and works very good.. amazing sound,
graphics...=20

After this patch, it runs FreeBSD 11 CURRENT to the fullest. I tested also =
on
R10.0 and R10.3
