If you grep the kernel source for that message, you'll find it...
I've seen the same message while using LVM/XFS. I don't think it's a
fatal error, just a warning. We'd have to ask the kernel experts
just exactly what it means.

I don't think it's devfs or your frame buffer. The reason it works
in your xterm is that the printk messages from the kernel are not
shown in the xterm, but are on the foreground vt when you are at the
console, unless you suppress them. ("setterm -msglevel 1" might do
it.)
