rmmod evbug  stops that; to make it permanent, I removed evbug from the
/lib/modules/<version>/modules.inputmap  but I don't know if this is The
Right Way.  If it's not The Right Way, I'd like to be updated.

In the meantime, since those log lines you posted could very well have
been your keyboard events, be aware that you might have just exposed a
password you typed :(

Someone could tell me why make-kpkg created kernels load evbug at boot
by default if it's compiled?  That doesn't really seem a good idea to
me.  Not at all.
