Commit "HID: logitech: perform bounds checking on device_id early enough" unfortunately leaks some errors to dmesg which are not real ones: - if the report is not a DJ one, then there is not point in checking the device_id - the receiver (index 0) can also receive some notifications which can be safely ignored given the current implementation Move out the test regarding the report_id and also discards printing errors when the receiver got notified.
