See commit messages.

All available options were just enabling
hardware.enableRedistributableFirmware. There were nix files without
modules which weren't referenced anywhere.
 * the keyboard modules in all-hardware.nix are already defaults of
   boot.initrd.availableKernelModules
 * ide modules, hid_lenovo_tpkbd and scsi_wait_scan have been removed
   because they're not available anymore
 * i8042 was a duplicate (see few lines abowe)

Maybe i8042 could be removed from here assuming the kernel problem has been fixed? Not sure if that's worth it though.

I've investigated a bit but wasn't able to find any information. It's safer to keep it around for now IMHO.
