Thanks Joshua
On HP spectre x360 convertible the message:
hid-sensor-hub 001F:8087:0AC2.0002: hid_field_extract() called with n (192) > 32! (kworker/1:2)
is continually printed many times per second, crowding out all else
Protect dmesg by printing the warning only one time.

All the other bits are fine, but this line is oddly written
with unusual spacing around 'n'.

Normally it'd be something like:

		hid_warn_once(hid, "%s: called with n (%d) > 32! (%s)\n",
			      __func__, n, current->comm);
