I think we can simply remove the error message.  There's no obvious 
reason why sysfs_remove_bin_file() should complain about attempts to 
remove a nonexistent file; sysfs_remove_file() doesn't.

This patch will get rid of the annoying error messages.  It won't do 
anything about your keyboard's tendency to spontaneously stop working, 
alas.
