Tumbleweed y2logs from host gx760

To reproduce:
1-log in on any of tty[1-6] on system with empty floppy drive
2a-fdisk -l; or
2b-hwinfo --[cdrom|disk|ide|partition|redasd|scsi] # pick any one

Actual results:
1-expected command output; plus
2-(e.g.)
[  565.922030] blk_update_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0
[  565.922903] floppy: error -5 while reading block 0
[  565.949031] blk_update_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0
[  565.949927] floppy: error -5 while reading block 0

Expected results:
1-expected command output # (only)

Notes:
1-Happens with 3.16.7 on 13.2 and 3.18.3 and 3.19.rc7 on Tumbleweed
2-only happens on two (4 installations) of four (8 installations) real hardware
multiboot hosts tested (gx760 w/ ICH10D SATA; fi965 w/ ICH8R SATA using mdraid
), not on hosts big41 (NM10/ICH7 SATA) or gx28c (ICH6 SATA)
3-sometimes litter precedes, sometimes follows, sometimes mixed among expected
command output, depending on output expected
4-/proc/partitions on 13.2 and TW contain fd0. /proc/partitions on 13.1 using
3.11.10, and Rawhide using 3.19.rc7 do not contain fd0.
