This patch is not really fixing an important bug, it is just tweaking
an error message. I'm not sure why it is being queued for stable. I
believe AUTOSEL process should be more careful.

Second, at least for 5.10 and older, it is not _fixing_ bug, it is
_adding_ one, as old message is correct there.

Please drop.
