These messages are a regression compared with 2.6.24, which did not flood the syslog with them. The actual underlying problem was introduced in 2.6.23, when somebody made the string parsing no longer accept nul-terminated strings as a valid input to store_uevent(). Eg. "add\0" was valid prior to 2.6.23, where the code regressed to require "add" without the '\0'. This patch fixes the 2.6.23 / 2.6.24 regressions, by having the code once again tolerate the trailing '\0', if present. According to GregKH, this mainly affects older Ubuntu systems, such as the one I have here that requires this fix.
