Occasionally, warnings like this:
vnode modified 2af7 on {10000b:1} [exp 2af2] YFS.FetchStatus(vnode)
are emitted into the kernel log. This indicates that when we were applying
the updated vnode (file) status retrieved from the server to an inode we
saw that the data version number wasn't what we were expecting (in this
case it's 0x2af7 rather than 0x2af2).
We've usually received a callback from the server prior to this point - or
the callback promise has lapsed - so the warning is merely informative and
the state is to be expected.
Fix this by only emitting the warning if the we still think that we have a
valid callback promise and haven't received a callback.
Also change the format slightly so so that the new data version doesn't
look like part of the text, the like is prefixed with "kAFS: " and the
message is ranked as a warning.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
