Thanks to your comment I also realized that journald still logs the
dmesg driver spam which results in bloated journald log files as well.
Few more steps is required to alleviate that:
1. sudo vi /etc/systemd/journald.conf
2. Uncomment Storage=auto and change it to Storage=none
3. Uncomment
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
I have the same issue.
Workarounds with driver recompilation are not really a good fit in my
case since they require to set up a build system and also to enroll a
MOK key for unsigned drivers to work because I have Secure Boot enabled.
acpi_osi workaround disables touchpad on my system.
