This doesn't look right. Shouldn't _BQC indicate that it's an ACPI spec 
video device, and thus driven by the ACPI video driver?

Ugh. Use i8042_install_filter instead, and just look at the raw i8042 
stream. That'll avoid the ugly strncmp for the device names in order to 
find the right device.

Otherwise things seem reasonably good - it's a fair rewrite, so I'll 
want to read over things a bit more.
