Attachments: message block spammed into /var/log/messages

Description Andreas Kupries 2023-09-21 10:46:50 UTC
Created attachment 869650 [details]
message block spammed into /var/log/messages

This issue is placed into component `kernel` instead of `xfce` because it appeared in the kernel upgrade

from 5.14.21-150400.24.81.1-default
to   5.14.21-150400.24.84-default

I did yesterday evening, and becoming active this morning.
Note, the xfce desktop was not upgraded.

My workaround for the issue was going back to kernel .81

The moment I am logging into the xfce desktop the log file `/var/log/messages` is spammed with the attached message block, at a rate of several MB/sec.

Logging out of the desktop stops the spamming. 

The message block looks to come from the kernel.
