Have you tried backporting these two commits, and does it fix the
problem for you?

I think it was mostly an oversight, although it might have also been
my thinking that it was only a warning, so it wasn't that critical to
backport.  To be honest, I can't really recall exactly what happened
with that patch at this point.

If it does seen to work for you, I'm happy to suggest to the 3.10
stable kernel maintainers to have it be backported.
