While booting:
[snip] Nov 16 12:06:53 jmm kernel: VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly. Nov 16 12:06:53 jmm kernel: Freeing unused kernel memory: 136k freed Nov 16 12:06:53 jmm kernel: VFS: file-max limit 8192 reached Nov 16 12:06:53 jmm kernel: NET4: Unix domain sockets 1.0/SMP for Linux NET4.0. [snip]
It happens on 2.3.2{7,8} (haven't checked previous yet) and I *think* (not sure) it's tied to the patching that made fs/file_table.c get_empty_filp (only place this error message exists) SMP-safe, although it might be that it needs to declare max_files static (not sure at all :)
Only happens during initial boot, not while its running at all.
