Yes, but is this correct? 

sudo dnf info kcbench
Description : Compiles a linux kernel to benchmark a system or test its
            : stability.

Just curious why hid-ids.h which has "USB HID quirks support for Linux" should end up in a kernel compilation whose goal is to compile a kernel to benchmark linux. 

I am trying to install Fedora on a MS Surface Pro 3. This file in the kernel tells the device what to do with the Surface Type Cover 3 and so is needed in the LiveCD. Installation without it is a major pain.
