No, we expect this to fail on some systems (that is the whole point of
testing using the LOOP command to verify that AUX port is there and is
wired properly), so we should not be issuing warnings - the system way
very well be functioning properly.

dbg() is always there, so just rerun the boot with i8042.debug and get
all the trace needed.

Thanks.
