It spams logs like mad about incompatible devices sometimes.

Here's the more detailed comment in code:

If we're virtualized boot.iso, stop brltty. Virtual machines won't have any specialized hardware attached. It could still spam logs very thoroughly about device confusion, which we don't want. On live, it is managed by gnome shell and we don't want to stop it.


Draft, because I would like to discuss this with somebody in the know, and didn't find them yet.

Looks good to me - thanks a lot for looking into this, the brltty log spam is sometimes very annoying & I wonder if sometimes it could even break things due to eq. log storage running out. So glad to see this being fixed. :)

The feedback I got was that this expectation is probably not correct :-/
