Please change #undef DEBUG to #define DEBUG in
drivers/usb/input/hid-input.c and send me dmesg - we want to map those
key in HID driver if we can.

No, not really. atkbd is a recommended (and only) driver when
connecting PS/2 keyboards. We do want user to know how to set up
additional keys, if any. usbkbd driver is only to be used when there
are issues with full HID driver. It will only provide "standard" keys
and is not expected to be modified.
