This patch has come to my attention via the opensuse lists, where a poster reported about this new user-visible message (it appears in dmesg!) and rightfully asked: upgrade what component?
It's probably the userspace module loading utility, but it _really_ should say so. There's good room to read that message - a few months into the future - as "upgrade your kernel" instead ;)
