CC-ing schnitzeltony@googlemail.com as he might have an opinion about
this. I personally don't really hold on any of the options.

I think it's the right thing to do, in fact, I was preparing a
similar patch myself. The change that removed this argued that
it was not the responsibility of the BSP layer, but if you look
around at other BSP layers, almost all of them do include this
driver as part of their X server setup. It also lets X work
again on the RaspberryPi "out of the box" with the simplest
configuration - HDMI display + USB keyboard & mouse.

Out of interest: Why is xf86-input-libinput not appropriate for these
setups? I honestly did not know of a use case where -evdev would work but
-libinput would not...

I'm not sure (and I don't have a setup right now to test). I've always
used -evdev as that was the recommended driver for many years now.

I would have asked the same question. When preferring -libinput it
might be a good idea to remove
recipes-graphics/xorg-xserver/xserver-xf86-config/rpi/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf
