This is a Seabios bug. Seabios expects the PS/2 controller doesn't
generate interrupts after it sends the command KBD_CCMD_KBD_DISABLE
to the controller. Even the original author of the pckbd code wrote
in a comment that this is incorrect. I will send a version 3 series
where I don't fix the incorrectness.
