The patch titled md: remove useless ioctl warning has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is md-remove-useless-ioctl-warning.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this From: NeilBrown <neilb@xxxxxxx> This warning was slightly useful back in 2.2 days, but is more an annoyance now. It makes it awkward to add new ioctls (that we we are likely to do that in the current climate, but it is possible).
