Yes.  The test environment is booted directly from  LinuxBIOS as a 
direct payload.

I wouldn't go that far; it could be a register config problem that is 
causing a driver malfunction.

My code is not using interrupts, but instead accessing the 8042 
controller on a polling schedule that is under my direct control.

It could be that, for example, there is something wrong with the 
interrupt controller setup such that the Linux driver is not able to 
service the interrupts with the expected timing.
