After the initial configuration some USB keyboard+mouse devices never return any kind of event on the interrupt line. In particular, the device identified by "Cypress Cypress USB Keyboard / PS2 Mouse as /devices/platform/soc/3f980000.usb/usb1/1-1/1-1.3/1-1.3:1.0/0003:04B4:0101.0001/input/input0" never returns a data packet until the first external input event.
I found this was also true with some newer model Dell keyboards.
When the device is plugged into a xhci controller there is also no point in waiting 5 seconds for a device that is never going to present data, so the call to the interrupt service was changed to a nonblocking operation for the controllers that support this.
With the patch applied, the rpi3 and rpi4 work well with the more complex keyboard devices.
