Description:
Since I'm using the AMD Radeon R7 370 cards on boot it tends to show some sort of ACPI error message and then a similar message which hovers over the username login: section in the console. The error messages should not appear I unfortunately can't show the error message screenshot but would like some sort of fix for this. It doesn't happen on my Nvidia GT graphics card but does with the AMD graphics card.

Steps to reproduce:
Use AMD Radeon R7 370 graphics card and load up in console error message at boot and logon sometimes shows up.
This task depends upon

The error messages should not appear
Why should the error messages not appear? Have you found these message in dmesg and checked that the log level is actually error?
Does upstream agree that the messages should not appear or that the log level is not correct?
What fix are you asking for that arch alters a kernel driver without upstream's agreement or changes the default loglevel for the kernel or something else?

And, why can't you tell us what specific error messages these are? Without this sort of basic info, how are we supposed to even know what your issue is?
