I get the same thing. I've looked at it and concluded that this is due to linux's performing readahead, but trying to readahead beyond the end of the file. I sent mail to the list asking if that was supposed to be happening, and that the warning should just be deleted, but haven't gotten any reply, yet.
It's probably safe for you to ignore the warnings for now, but it would be nice if someone who understood the read-ahead code would clarify if the warning is spurious, or if the read-ahead should be stopping at the end of the file.
