Sorry I chime in so late. Do you need the hardware irq support to 
prevent losing events? If so, the USB stack takes care of it:
The keyboard driver prepares a schedule of configurable length in 
advance. By default, it's setup that this schedule is able to survive at 
least 200 msecs, and that could be increased, so we won't need the 
~1msec resolution. And even if not, the USB HID only sends data every 
10msec, if I remember correctly.
