Description Harald Reindl 2013-12-29 13:07:03 UTC
affects F18/F19/F20/F21/RHEL7

why do this messages flood dmesg and the virtual terminal
these are *not* emergeny messages, so log them somewhere
and in case of "freed 0 bytes" simply throw them away 

currently if a machine is under heavy load *you can not* work in your terminal because these messages are permanently spit within your typed text
