In the SCSI command set for disks (SBC-2) the LOG SENSE
command is used to fetch SMART information. Some heavy
decided this is an "unknown opcode" and all standard
linux 2.6 series kernels output this warning the
_first_ time they seem this opcode. The heavy still
thinks it is a good idea it would seem.

It is harmless and will be fixed it time. Please ignore
it :-)
