syslog is full of wlan0: switched to short barker preamble
My /var/log/syslog is full of messages such as
Sep 7 23:36:32 kusumanchi kernel: [279482.279985] wlan0: switched to short
barker preamble (BSSID=00:23:97:5c:5f:e0)
Sep 7 23:36:33 kusumanchi kernel: [279484.023153] wlan0: switched to long

Is there anything I can do to get rid of these messages? Google did not
yield any useful hits (may be I am using the wrong keywords).
