Since it is happening on shutdown, its not causing any real issues with the user session, however it is spamming the users (and errors.u.c) with crash logs. [Test Case] 1. Running under a gdm/gnome-shell session select 'power off' from the user menu (it doesn't get triggered on a restart) 2. On next login you will receive a crash report [Regression Potential] Very Low, its an upstream patch, that just changes the error logging, so that the a warning is logged rather than crashing the server.
