Hello,

I just grabbed the particular kernel package'es source-package, 
installed it into ~/rpmbuild and ran "rpmbuild -bp" on its spec-file 
which should result in all RHs patches to be applied.

 From the resulting code in ~/rpmbuild/BUILD/..., I grabbed file.c and 
placed it here:
http://troels.arvin.dk/misc/fio/unaligned/

Lines close to the error message (probably wrapped by my mailer):

	/* Unaligned direct AIO must be serialized; see comment above */
	if (unaligned_aio) {
		static unsigned long unaligned_warn_time;

		/* Warn about this once per day */
		if (printk_timed_ratelimit(&unaligned_warn_time, 60*60*24*HZ))
			ext4_msg(inode->i_sb, KERN_WARNING,
				 "Unaligned AIO/DIO on inode %ld by %s; "
				 "performance will be poor.",
				 inode->i_ino, current->comm);

		mutex_lock(&EXT4_I(inode)->i_aio_mutex);
		ext4_aiodio_wait(inode);
  	}
