That's a good point but unfortunately unloading and reloading the module doesn't stop the messages from being produced on my system. Also, until the issue is fixed, my aim was exactly to filter unnecessary events from syslog to avoid bloated log files (kern.log and syslog) and unnecessary events since it was the biggest and probably the only real symptom for me.

It looks like this: i2c_hid i2c-ELAN1010:00: i2c_hid_get_input: incomplete report (14/65535) i2c_hid i2c-ELAN1010:00: i2c_hid_get_input: incomplete report (14/65535) i2c_hid i2c-ELAN1010:00: i2c_hid_get_input: incomplete report (14/65535) i2c_hid i2c-ELAN1010:00: i2c_hid_get_input: incomplete report (14/65535) etc... This problem did not occur on the previous kernel version so there must have been a change to the "drivers/hid/i2c-hid/i2c-hid.c" file. This seems to be fixed in a recent commit here: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/ef6eaf27274c0351f7059163918f3795da13199c I am currently running the older kernel version but would still like to be up to date without this flooding happening.
