User reports the issue now occurs in GRUB too so it looks like a hardware issue. User also reports the keyboard on the laptop has been previously damaged due to drops.

Seems to happen as soon as I get to any login screen command line or GUI too. I don't think this happens before then but could be wrong. This is annoying but seems to also have stopped a few times but will come back out of the blue. Beyond that, I have popped the key off and cleaned under there with no luck. I have also used the mainline kernel and still having issues. Last, the repeating key press is unclicked in settings.
