Bug Description

Hello,
my /var/log/syslog and /var/log/kern.log
get flooded with such messages.
I don't know where such messages come from.

Currently my kern.log and syslog have 170MB
size each.

Why do you think that? The call traces in bug 295781 are completely different, and look unrelated. The only common symptom between the two reports is the large log size. This is the same bug as bug 286285, which is why I marked it as a duplicate.
