Yes, there was a change in Keyboard related logic in formfactor with this recent commit:

commit 463fd5ee26c5037b0f4ecfe4bc6ed48945b3b07e

 formfactor: assume a keyboard is plugged in
        
 A sensible assumption is that BSPs have a USB keyboard and mouse connected
 unless told otherwise, so flip the logic in the formfactor config script that
 previously assumed that a keyboard was not connected by default.
