Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2011-04-04 02:41:43 UTC

Since RHEL 6.1 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains
unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as
exception or blocker.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the
next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 3 Adam Jackson 2012-07-16 15:45:00 UTC

This is properly a kernel bug since that's where the message lives.

The DRM in RHEL 6.3 can't possibly generate this message anymore, so, closing.
