It kind of helps, but there is a catch.
hid-logitech-dj is not loaded after a fresh boot, so I need to modprobe it manually and that
appears to be blocking (apparently indefinitely) until terminated with ^C. But then it turns
out that hid-logitech-dj is there in the list of modules and it is in use (by usbhid) and the
mouse works.
I guess I need to update the mkinitrd configuration, but even so that is not exactly
straightforward IMO. :-)
Cheers!
