[Bug 1412077] [NEW] Logitech USB keyboard not working in initramfs

[legolas558]

Public bug reported:

This bug might either be in kernel or initramfs-tools.

With kernel linux-image-extra-3.13.0-36-generic (and previous) I cannot
verify the issue, but all other subsequent versions, and also latest
linux-image-extra-3.13.0-44-generic are affected by this issue.

Basically the hid-logitech-dj (and hid and hid-generic) are missing and
this makes the keyboard impossible to use in any initramfs program.

I have tried to force the usage of this module, but even with modprobe
it fails for unknown reasons.

Possibly related bugs:

#1238194
#1066376
#229732

- See also bugs #1238194  #1066376 #229732 which could constitute proof
- that this is a regression.
