system log grows quickly with USB evbug.c messages.

[Darin Strait <darin_strait@yahoo.com>]

I'm running a standard debian binary kernel package (kernel-image-2.6.0-1-686) 
and it seems that I get a message written to the system log for every USB 
event. Since I have a USB mouse and keyboard, there are rather a lot of 
events. 

The messages looks like these (sorry for the wrapping):

Jan 27 10:58:58 localhost kernel: evbug.c: Event. Dev:

Is this just my problem, or is everyone having it? No one else seems to be 
complaining about it. I noticed this problem because the partition 
with /var/log on it has only about 190M free, which gets eaten through after 
a few hours.

If it matters, I use grub.
