yes, /proc/pci is obsolete and has been since at least 2.2.12 iirc, it
is now a configuration option for the kernel, "backword compatible
/proc/pci" or somesuch. the kernel message is just a warning so
programs still using it can be identified and fixed before this
obsolete item is removed from the kernel.  

this message occured on 2.2.12, 2.2.13, 2.2.14 and 2.2.15, probably
older kernels too.
