I've recently upgraded my kernel from 3.10.25 to 3.24.21 and I've been seeing these warnings from the kernel. The frequency is about 2 or 3 times per day, and only in the early morning when there's a lot of load and activity due to system backups. Should I be worried about this? I tried kernel 3.16 recently, but there's just too many stability problems there.
