Is it really an issue?  It looks to me like only one process can open it at 
a time, anyhow...

int
kbdopen(dev_t dev, int flags, int mode, struct proc *p)
{
        int error;

        /* Exclusive open required for /dev/kbd */
        if (kbd_softc.k_events.ev_io)
                return (EBUSY);
        kbd_softc.k_events.ev_io = p;

	[ . . . ]
}
