Through LFS 7.10 I've suppressed ACPI errors with a /etc/sysctl.conf file containing 'kernel.printk = 4.'

However, with LFS 8.0 and the 4.9.9 kernel the errors aren't suppressed. Is this a kernel issue? I see the following in Kernal Hacking/printk and dmesg options --->:

   Default message log level (1-7) (NEW)

The default value is 4. It seems that should make /etc/sysctl.conf unnecessary. But building the kernel with that value displays never-ending ACPI errors, with or without /etc/sysctl.conf. This isn't a significant problem as it occurs only in command line mode but it is annoying.

If I boot my 8.0 build with the 7.10 kernel and /etc/sysctl.conf the ACPI errors are suppressed. That suggests there's not an error with my 8.0 build. Logical?
