** Description changed:

  This bug might either be in kernel or initramfs-tools.
  
  Known good kernels:
  - linux-image-extra-3.13.0-35-generic
  - linux-image-extra-3.13.0-36-generic
  
  All other subsequent versions (including latest linux-image-
  extra-3.13.0-44-generic) are affected by this issue.
+ 
+ Starting from linux-image-extra-3.13.0-36-generic the pcscd daemon gets
+ started automatically for some unknown reason (this was not happening
+ before with -35-generic).
  
  Basically the hid modules (hid, hid-generic and usbhid) are not loaded
  and this makes the keyboard impossible to use in any initramfs CLI
  program that requires user input.
  
  I have tried to force the usage of this module, but even with modprobe
  it fails for reasons unknown to me.
  
  Possibly related bugs:
