We have a kernel test that checks for new warning and error messages on 
boot and with this change I am now seeing the following error message on 
our Tegra platforms ...

  WARNING KERN hid_bpf: error while preloading HID BPF dispatcher: -13

I have a quick look at the code, but I can't say I am familiar with 
this. So I wanted to ask if a way to fix this or avoid this? I see the 
code returns 0, so one option would be to make this an informational or 
debug print.

Thanks
Jon
