That's not a new warning, it shows up from time to time, it's something in lockdep, the value is defined in kernel/locking/lockdep_internals.h. > [ 1250.722641] turning off the locking correctness validator. This makes things worse as all follwing tests won't be validated, so you may want to go report it to lockdep people.
