Late during boot, this issues the following warning on my Pentium D,
apparently when trying to load an appropriate CPU frequency driver:

Looking back, -rc3-mm1 did that too.
Mainline (-rc3 through -rc5) never did.
Let me know if you need more information.
CCing Dave Jones for cpufreq and Greg KH for sysdev.
