Yes.

More specifically, it's used to ensure that the scancodes that should
be detected when a particular key is hit or released are actually
detected when that key is hit or released.  It's also useful for
identifying how a particular keyboard has failed, to see which
scancodes aren't being transmitted properly.

That said, it's not something that should be left in a production
driver.  It's more suited for a development/diagnostics station than a
general-purpose system.

(Eeesh.  And my friends call *me* "paranoid".)
