[Andreas Müller]

When inserting/removing USB device not handled by upower
(Mouse/Keyboard/USB-Sticks..) upower spams on later kernels:

+Subject: [PATCH] linux: lower severity of "unhandled action" messages
+

+powerd. To avoid littering logs with scary messages, let's lower their
+severity to "debug".
