Many years ago when this driver was written, it had a use, but these
days it's nothing but trouble and distributions should not enable it
in any situation.

Pretty much every console device a sparc machine could see has a
bonafide real driver, making the PROM console hack unnecessary.

If any new device shows up, we should write a driver instead of
depending upon this crutch to save us.  We've been able to take care
of this even when no chip documentation exists (sunxvr500, sunxvr2500)
so there are no excuses.

A modern replacement is available as drivers/input/keyboard/lkkbd.c. There are no plans to do anything about this piece of code and it does not fit anywhere anymore, so it is not just a matter of maintenance or the lack of. There are still some bits that might be added to the new lkkbd.c driver based on the old code, and the embedded hardware documentation which is otherwise quite hard to get hold of might be useful to keep too.
