Subject: New boot time message: detected capacity change

Today's pull from Linus' tree (HEAD = 258-ga2b9c1f) gave me some new
messages during boot:

sda: detected capacity change from 0 to 146815737856
sdb: detected capacity change from 0 to 146815737856

They weren't there yesterday (HEAD = 211-gc1d10d1) ... nor do they
show up in any of my saved boot time dmesg files for the last few
months.

Harmless?  Or something to worry about in the last few commits
before 2.6.39 goes final?
