This is an old thread, but this warning still exists in the code and 
still occurs
on resume from suspend-to-ram, as of 4.18-rc2.

I have tested the below patch on a Renesas Salvator-X ES2.0 and it does
indeed remove this warning on S2RAM resume.

I agree it is not serious, but the text of the warning does not sound 
harmless.
So IMHO the text should be modified or the below patch should be submitted
for review/merge.

Thanks,
Steve
