I am delighted to report that this issue has finally been resolved
as of the 5.14.0 mainline kernel.

There is a completely unrelated annoyance involving APC UPSs and a
flood of "hid-generic: <device_id> control queue full" messages on
the console.  This was reported and fixed as of 01 Sep 2021, but
the fix hasn't made it into mainline yet :-(.

Respectfully,
