If we can keep the alias in the kbd driver instead of hardcoding a 
strcmp("keyboard", ...) in the module loading logic it should be OK. 
Maybe we can let the module register two drivers, or make a "keyboard" 
module that just loads "kbd" as a submodule.

Hmm... there is also #1029 which could require packager attention.  This 
could be an appendix in the release notes.
