... but i get this problem too:

# irw
0000000000010160 00 OK linux-input-layer
0000000000010067 00 UP linux-input-layer
0000000000010067 00 UP linux-input-layer
0000000000010067 00 UP linux-input-layer
0000000000010160 00 OK linux-input-layer
0000000000010080 00 STOP linux-input-layer
0000000000010080 00 STOP linux-input-layer
0000000000010080 00 STOP linux-input-layer
000000000001008b 00 MENU linux-input-layer
000000000001008b 00 MENU linux-input-layer
0000000000010080 00 STOP linux-input-layer
0000000000010080 00 STOP linux-input-layer
0000000000010080 00 STOP linux-input-layer
0000000000010080 00 STOP linux-input-layer
0000000000010080 00 STOP linux-input-layer
0000000000010080 00 STOP linux-input-layer
0000000000010080 00 STOP linux-input-layer
0000000000010080 00 STOP linux-input-layer
0000000000010080 00 STOP linux-input-layer
0000000000010080 00 STOP linux-input-layer

the UPs and OKs at the start were fine, and after that i just kept 
pressing STOP, but as you can see, there are some MENUs in amongst there 
that i never pressed.
