Public bug reported:

When I start the Ubuntu Xenial Installer, the USB keyboard is not
working. The installer was started from UEFI Shell using the command:

FS1:\EFI\BOOT\BOOTAA64.EFI

I had to restart the installer using the kernel option
'console=ttyS0,115200' and then use a serial connection.

Expected to happen
-----------------
Able to use USB keyboard to navigate through installer menus

What actually happened

Computer was not responding to any of the keys entered on the USB keyboard
