This is pretty much a cosmetic change - previously we were silently not reading the register, this just removes the attempt to read it since we added an error message in the core.
Right, the only reason I took it is that error message - I find that bogus error messages have almost the same (bad) impact as real kernel bugs.
The point is that the error message isn't present in stable kernels so there is no impact on any user visible behaviour.
