instructs the driver to avoid using Keyboard Interface Test command.
This command causes problems with some non-compliant hardware, resulting
in machine being abruptly powered down early in the boot process.
Particularly it's known that HP ZV5000 and Compaq R3000Z notebooks
are affected by this problem.
Due to popularity of those models this patch is good MFC5.4 candidate.

value of the resource. The code definitely expects the former, but I
could find no documentation of this apart from TFSC.
to mistakes from day 1, it has always had semantics inconsistent with
SVR4 and its successors. In particular, given argument M:
- On Solaris and FreeBSD/{alpha,sparc64}, it clobbers the old flags
and *sets* the new flag word to M. (NetBSD, too?)
- On FreeBSD/{amd64,i386}, it *clears* the flags that are specified in M
and leaves the remaining flags unchanged (modulo a small bug on amd64.)
- On FreeBSD/ia64, it is not implemented.
There is no way to fix fpsetsticky() to DTRT for both old FreeBSD apps
and apps ported from other operating systems, so the best approach
seems to be to kill the function and fix any apps that break. I
couldn't find any ports that use it, and any such ports would already
be broken on FreeBSD/ia64 and Linux anyway.
By the way, the routine has always been undocumented in FreeBSD,
except for an MLINK to a manpage that doesn't describe it. This
manpage has stated since 5.3-RELEASE that the functions it describes
are deprecated, so that must mean that functions that it is *supposed*
to describe but doesn't are even *more* deprecated. ;-)
Note that fpresetsticky() has been retained on FreeBSD/i386. As far
as I can tell, no other operating systems or ports of FreeBSD
implement it, so there's nothing for it to be inconsistent with.
