Yes, this is only a warning; 'tail-f' still works when falling back to
polling, of course, but not as efficiently as it would do with the
inotify interface the kernel provides.
We had this warning to be prompted by users about new file system types,
but as now we regularly update to the list in the kernel sources, we
removed the warning.
Have a nice day,
