Benign Message: drivers/usb/input/hid-input.c: event field not found

On servers running the Linux operating system, when booting into the graphical user interface (GUI), the dmesg log might show the following error message more than once. (CR 6458542)

drivers/usb/input/hid-input.c: event field not found

Problem

During X Server initialization, some devices can get out of sync and some EV_REP events can get interpreted incorrectly as input events. This is caused by a bug in the HID driver. This message can be ignored safely.

Workaround

None at this time. This issue will be resolved in a later update of the Linux kernel.
