Kernel: Make i8042 controller initialization sequence more robust
The setting of scan code set sequence is removed, as it's buggy and
could lead the controller to fail immediately when doing self-test
afterwards. We will restore it when we understand how to do so safely.
Allow the user to determine a preferred detection path with a new kernel
command line argument. The defualt option is to check i8042 presence
with an ACPI check and if necessary - an "aggressive" test to determine
i8042 existence in the system.
Also, keep the i8042 controller pointer on the stack, so don't assign
m_i8042_controller member pointer if it does not exist.
