Same problem here. An old HP mouse (could not figure out the type) sends mostly multiple buttonrelease events. I have connected an additional Logitech M570 (restarted nothing, just plugged in), and that one does the same. Watching their behaviour in xev it seems that after connecting, the m570 is much more prone to erroneous behaviour. Actually it seemed that the "first" mouse behaves badly. This machine is very old and not upgraded for a long time. I see that the last comment is 3 years old to this bug. Maybe it is silently fixed already?
