What sort of device is this? And what is the program?
It happens on my USB flash memory stick, which uses USB_STORAGE and BLK_DEV_SD. A simple open(2) is enough to trigger the message. I'm about to try -mm3 on a different machine which has a "true" SCSI controller/disk combo. (I should have checked that first, sorry.)
