-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. --------------------- From: Len Brown <len.brown@xxxxxxxxx> upstream commit 33fd7afd66ffdc6addf1b085fe6403b6af532f8e We have been printing these messages at KERN_ERR since 2.6.24, per http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9535 But KERN_ERR pops up on a console booted with "quiet" and causes users to get alarmed and file bugs about the message itself: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=436589 So reduce the severity of these messages to KERN_WARNING, which is not printed by "quiet". This message will still be seen without "quiet", but a lot of messages are printed in that mode and it will be less likely to cause undue alarm. We could go all the way to KERN_DEBUG, but this is a real warning after all, so it seems prudent not to require "debug" to see it.
